    Ok, time to pick up where I left off with a retrospective trawl through my music collection throughout the years.
    I finished last time at the end of the 80s so I'll start with 1990 over the weekend and then 1991 with the new week on monday.
    1990 was a particularly good year on a personal level and an excellent one for music on both sides of the pond.

    I'll start with one of the all-time great Singer/Songwriter/Guitarists, Paul Simon who was dabbling with South American rhythms on his '90 album
    The Rhythm of the Saints (I can remember him being given a Saints shirt on Saturday morning kids TV st the time!)...

    Here are some more nostalgic gems from 1990...

    This band was such a revelation in the era of big hair preening Rock bands like Bon Jovi, they sounded authentic and from the streets..it's LA Alternative Rock band Jane's Addiction..
