Despite their 'nutty' image, this has a melancholic edge that I didn't recognise at the time but as time has gone is easily spotted. I guess I have always been a glass half empty person! Love that Sax solo though.

Before I even knew how great XTC were I loved this track.

Yes I still like E.L.O and I couldn't give two craps if it's uncool. I grew up with this band and Geoff Lynne writes a mean Pop tune.

The very first Reggae track I can remember and I have only just found out right now that it's Jonathan Richman & The Modern Lovers. I don't know whether to be pleased or devastated!

My first recollection of a Guitar being a main instrument. Give me a break I was around 6 when my Dad first played this! Sounds quite cool even now, especially all the sound F/X. Thank you Dad!

Forgot this one. Still a top tune!
