    Sound and emotion of my youth. As someone once said ‘same as it ever was”.

    Didn't they all have a crap guitar break back then? Foreigner, REO Speedwagen, the lot. :)

    Just remember walking around my relatives neighbourhood in Toronto, red hot days and every street seemed to have its own rock band practicing. Then driving cross country to Vancouver and hearing that song countless times a day on countless FM stations

    The Style Council while all around me at The Sixth Form College seemed to be Rainbow, Whitesnake and AC/DC.

    98/2005. Supergrass for me. Very little in my preferred genre and it was a low period for me on a personal level.

    The X-Ray Album being the go to album in my abject low and Life on other Planets being my up turn album.

    I'd rather focus on happier times.

    Possibly their best album. It's part of my soundtrack. :)

    1988 to 1994 for me so if I go down the middle and 1991, think of a song that typified my teenage angst, I naturally end up with this:

    First band I saw live ( Barnsley civic)



    Wish I’d seen these live. Might shock a few Slade fans this one.

    I was 13 in 1995.

    Key albums I remember from the mid 90s were:
    Kula Shaker - K
    Alanis Morrisette - Jagged Little Pill
    Bush - 16 Stone
    Bon Jovi - These Days
    Green Day - Dookie
    Offspring - Smash


    As I moved into later teens I fell in with the more alternative scene.
    Deftones - Around The Fur
    System of a Down - System of a Down
    Rage Against the Machine - all of them

    They are all still in my regular rotation.

    Key albums from my teens:

    REM - Out of Time, Automatic for the People, Monster
    Manic Street Preachers - The Holy Bible, Everything Must Go
    Oasis - Definitely Maybe
    Pulp - His n Hers, Different Class
    The Levellers - Levelling the Land
    Blur - Modern Life is Rubbish
    EMF - Schubert Dip
    Carter USM - The Love Album
    Nirvana - everything from start to finish
    Suede - Suede, Dog Man Star
    Radiohead - The Bends

    Probably missed a few off there as well. What a great time to be a music fan.

    I also listened to a lot of Pixies, Stone Roses and early REM, even though they were released when I was much younger.

    And then I went off to university and discovered electronic music around 1998-99 which was also a pretty incredible time to be partying.

    It all changed for me when I heard this and then saw them perform it in 1977
