Alchemy is an album I will always have a soft spot for, purely because when I was 8 years old I thought it was the best thing ever. Same with A-ha's Hunting High and Low and the Pet Shop Boys' Actually.
What albums did you worship as a kid and will always have a liking for?
what's the story, morning glory?
great album. dad used to play it in the car alll the time.
and the monkees
and beach boys too.
I feel old now.
I had Morning Glory when I was 14 and therefore of 'listening age'.
i must've been like 6
or something. :)
how does it feel, old man?
Really freaking old.
It'll happen to you too sunshine, just you wait.
not for 8 years yet.
i've not even reached my sexual prime yet! it's ok, you've got 'experience', or something.
Jesus Jones - Doubt
World Party - Goodbye Jumbo
Proclaimers - Sunshine on Leith.
I actively hated music until I was about 11, so nothing earlier than these, I'm afraid.
Proclaimers - lovely stuff
I had that too. How was Big Brother?
That was the first album I ever had.
I managed to avoid big brother by spending all evening cooking and washing up. I'm such a rebel.
I hear girls moving downstairs. The Russell brand DVD must have finished. UH OH
QUICK
Dive through the window before they give you a makeover.
MONEY FOR NOTHIN'!!!
'twas Alchemy for me as well
cos my dad bought it and i thought it sounded cool, back when i had zero cultural knowledge. The 10 min Sultans Of Swing is brilliant.
Dire Straits
for me n all, brothers in arms though, and the entire Yes back catalogue, oh and Cat Stevens

my dad's car cassettes were
'love it to death' by Alice Cooper (bizarre that, think someone must have bought it for him...) and 'Hunky Dory' by D Bowie
Still think both those albums are incredible- everyone knows about Hunky Dory, but the Alice Cooper is very under-rated, probably cos of the panto aspect to his stuff
Little Creatures

It's been a tough week family wise, too emotional to dig it out, but I'll give it a spin later.
Easy
Ziggy Stardust & The Spiders From Mars - David Bowie
Welcome to my Nightmare - Alice Cooper
The Story of The Clash - The Clash
Will be with me forever more.
I do love a good nap and drifting off to Cooper gives me the best dreams I have ever had.
Which is probably kind of weird now I come to think of it.
Red Hot Chili Peppers - Californication
DREAM OF CALIFORNICATIOOOOOOON
Dandy Warhols
