The couple that inspired me to pick up guitar, while in college (female singer was my girlfriends roomie, and her BF could shred, and they used to play around SLO, CA at the time), used to ROCK that song, it was kinda their signature song.

Her BF taught me some of the first licks and chords I ever knew.

Also the first time I ever sang live in front of a bar full of people was when they let me come up to sing You Shook Me All Night Long with them.
