    I've still got a 12" special edition of Love Like Blood in my loft amongst my treasured vinyl ... it is sitting pretty alongside other 12" treasures such as 'Grimly Fiendish' by The Damned (white vinyl), 'The Boys of Summer' by Don Henley. 'Come Back' by Pete Wylie & The Mighty Wah, 'Doot Doot' by Freur, 'Life In A Northern Town' by Dream Academy, 'Heaven' by Psychedlic Furs ... and, my guilty pleasure, 'Give Me Back My Heart' by Dollar!

    I've long since lost my vinyl collection, but I remember having Into The Valley on white vinyl and and Banana Splits by The Dickies on yellow vinyl, along with a picture disk, though I can't remember the song or artist.

    Let's also not forget the floppy disk, I remember having Sheep Farming In The Falklands by Crass. For those not familiar with this classic track, the chorus went - Sheep farming in the Falklands, Rearming in the ****lands, ****ing sheep in the homelands, the royal marines are coming...

    Good call, John. Dead End Street is a good tune of theirs and all.

    Since i only put 5 down i'll add Tin Soldier (Small Faces), Stand By Me (Oasis), and Shine On You Crazy Diamonds (Pink Floyd). Although, as everyone says, these are basically what i've been listening to all week and would change if asked next week.
