Certainly do. Razzle too but the only one I ever had the stones to buy myself was a copy of Mayfair I picked up off the news stand outside King's Cross/St Pancras one Sunday morning in the dim and distant past. Aside from that we usually had to scour local building sites and that as kids. Dunno why but for some reason it was always British Gas's lot that were the mucky fuckers. Whenever you'd see the pavement dug up for laying a bit of pipe you'd always find a few pictures lying around of people, well, laying a bit of pipe. :lol:

On topic!

Echo and the Bunnymen are fucking great.

Records: Crocodiles, Porcupine, Heaven Up Here and Ocean Rain. ;)

Miles Davis.

A few tips on what albums are very welcome.

Firstly, Kind of Blue, of course. It's the most famous jazz album of all-time, plus you have Miles Davis AND John Coltrane on it! I would also recommend, in the line of modal jazz, his Milestones. If you wanna take a look at what Miles was doing before the modal jazz, listen to his official compilation album of cool jazz, The Birth of the Cool. Now, if you wanna know his jazz fusion moment, take a look at In a Silent Way (which have a young Herbie Hancock on it) and Bitches Brew. I think these are his most known and successful albums.

Revolver is the best Beatles album. ( yes Dazey I listened to Sgt Pepper today at work, love it, just not as much as the other"classic" Beatles albums and Mr. Kite can suck my ass. Terrible song.)

You have no soul.
