The album that was the soundtrack to your youth

[Prince Monolulu]

Blimey, there I was, sweet 16, school uniform and never been kissed (well, not properly!)

Wow, the first time I was kissed properly was up Devil's Dyke.

 

[Raskolnikov]

Favourite Worst Nightmare - Arctic Monkeys

 

[SouthCoastOwl]

Heaven and Hell - Black Sabbath

 

[Shirty]

Appetite for Destruction - Guns n Roses

 

[The Brighton Bear]

Deep Purple in Rock.

 

[jakarta]

Space Ritual - Hawkwind. Actually wore out the cassette!

 

[binky]

Rattus Norvegicus : The Stranglers

Although I wouldn't say it defined the rest of my record collection, then or now.

Bat out of Hell by Meat Loaf a close second.

 

[Dolph Ins]

Dark Side of the Moon- Pink Floyd. Surprised I am the first to mention it.

 

[Diego Napier]

Wow, the first time I was kissed properly was up Devil's Dyke.

Wow! Most of us were ecstatic to cop one on the mouth.

Another shout for Power, Corruption and Lies.

 

[Vegas Seagull]

Interesting selection. Would swap out Prince for Pornography by The Cure; Felt for Wish You Were Here by PF. Other three would be on my list.

But if I had to pick one....well it has to be Psychocandy, SURELY!

you can't swap in wish you were here or your youth would be over a decade shurely...

Space Ritual - Hawkwind. Actually wore out the cassette!

Paper plates thrown under strobe lighting = Spaceships

Tunbridge Wells assembly halls I think

 

[Trevor]

The Wall .

Still a belting album - there were so much to find with each new listen. It is a bit of a whinge though

 

[Blue3]

George Harrison - "All things must past" and I still think it's one of my favourite all time albums

Well they never had Pink Floyd's budget!!!

 

[Blue3]

I'm probably a bit older than most people on here, but Wheels of Fire by Cream, which I had as an album when it first came out when I was about 13 or 14, and I have it now on CD. Three musicians at the top of their game, with Clapton quite possibly the least of the three. Jack Bruce as a bassist and singer has always been one of my musical heroes, and Ginger Baker as a drummer was so far ahead of anyone else around at the time.

Very good call I had the origional if I remember this was the worlds first double album one recorded in the studio the other live

 

[Mayonaise]

Trick of the Tail by Genesis got worn out in my youth

 

[Ron Manager]

ELO - Out of the Blue

 

[Icy Gull]

Well they never had Pink Floyd's budget!!!

Not knocking it, I loved it at the time!
