Summary

In this introspective episode of Stairway to Eleven , George, John, and TR dive into the artists they initially dismissed but eventually came to love. Or perhaps the opposite. From a teenage aversion to synth-heavy sounds to misjudged styles, the hosts share personal anecdotes about how their tastes evolved over time. They discuss what triggered these changes of heart—whether it was a live performance, a deeper understanding of the band’s artistry, or simply growing older and more open-minded. Along the way, they reveal which albums and tracks finally won them over (or drove them away) and reflect on the power of music to surprise and transform opinions.
