Outside of my current job, I probably got the most exposure to artists and music I didn’t know while I was in college. I lived in the dorms my first two years and just a couple of doors down from a gentleman we called Red Ryan (we knew about four or five Ryans at the time so we had to give them all nicknames; this one had long, red hair). We hung out quite a bit, even living together for a couple of years before graduating, and he was probably the one who introduced me to the most albums I had never heard before. One of the ones I thank him for the most is called The Lost Trident Sessions by Mahavishnu Orchestra.
