hi

my first album i ever bought was "springbok hits of the week no. 11"

it was an album of cover versions of the hit parade songs. yeah some of the
tracks were really damn awfull. i have subsequently found ou that thats
where trevor rabin (later to become a member of the re formed yes) got his
start. he was given a list of songs, with the unenviable task of
transcribing them in only 1 day, then given 3 hours studio time to record
the entire album!!!!

the second album i bought was bought mainly for its title. when adults asked
me what album i bought it was oh so satisfying to be able to tell them "suck
it & see" , wait for their faces to go to bright crimson then oh so
innocently pull out the album & show them that that was indeed what the
album was called, and that it had a picture of a piece of rock candy on the
front  :-)

hey, i was eleven years old at the time   :-)
