It was 1975 and I was 11. :rolleyes:
Didn't take me long to learn the error of my ways.

I didn't buy an album until 1978, when Kate Bush released The Kick Inside. As I've said before, it was a vulnerable age for a shy, innocent young man...
Did it go a little something like this, Martin?

I can do it
I can do it
I can really move
From my head right down to my blue suede shoes

Absolutely!

Sugar Sugar- The Archies + I'm The Urban Spaceman - Bonzo Dog Doo Dah Band.

I didn't actually buy these. My mum bought me a red Dansette record player for my birthday for £10 when I was 10 & the man in the shop said I could choose a few singles, so I chose the above because I liked the look of the record label designs on the centre of the vinyl.

"Sugar sugar,
Ahh honey honey.
You are my candy girl
And you've got me wanting yoouuuuuuuuu."

My friend had "Modern Dance" LP. That was the first record I heard a John Foxx song from, an edited version of "Europe After The Rain". I had forgotten that until now..
