I have no idea what my first exposure to DA was.  It might have been 
through KLYN's Saturday-night rock-music program, which I taped on a few 
occasions; the programs I taped included songs like 'Dancing on Light' and 
'New Car', the latter of which was preceded by a recorded intro by TST 
which was a heck of a lot more serious than the actual song turned out to 
be; the Saturday-night show also held a trivia contest every week, and on 
one occasion it was I who won, and my prize was a vinyl copy of Vox 
Humana, which became the first DA album in my collection (and when I 
realized it was Volume III of a four-part series, the completist in me 
just *had* to pick up the other albums...).  But I actually *might* have 
heard DA through KLYN's regular playlist first; when I got around to 
picking up the CD version of the band's first album, I was surprised to 
see that I recognized 'Walking on the Water', because KLYN had played it 
all the time.  As one who had been listening to the Alarma! Chronicles and 
Horrendous Disc and Darn Floor Big Bite for years, it never occurred to me 
that the band that made those albums might have recorded that song too.
