Got myself one of the first 500 copies (so I'm led to believe) - picture sleeve (black & white) - walked into a local record shop after a copy of "Now I'm Here" ... single after "Killer Queen" and bloke says "would you also like to pre-order a copy of the next single?" ... yus says I, go on then ... you win some ...
**** it, just go for Mothership. All the good stuff on there. Well, as much as could be squeezed into two CD's.
Nowhere - Ride Pills n’ Thrills - Mondays Puressence - S/T Seamonsters - Wedding Present Whiplash - James Some Friendly - Charlatans His n’ Hers - Pulp Heaven or Las Vegas - Cocteau Twins A Maximum High - Shed Seven It’s Great When You’re Straight - Black Grape
1. Seamonsters - The Wedding Present 2. Machine Gun Etiquette - The Damned 3. This Nations Saving Grace - The Fall 4. Murmur - REM 5. Blond on Blonde - Bob Dylan 6. Nevermind - Nirvana 7. Scott 4 - Scott Walker 8. Hex Enduction Hour - The Fall 9. Green - REM 10. Kimono My House - Sparks
Nevermind was the first album I ever bought with my own money. Only Nirvana album I ever bought. Havnt listened to it properly since the 90's but I can still admit to its quality.
Not my top 10, because that would be neigh on impossible, but a mix of 10 for Dessert Island Discs Led Zep- 3 Patti Smith - Horses Pearl Jam - Ten Placebo - Without You I'm Nothing Counting Crows - August and Everything After Mark Kozelek and Jimmy Lavelle - Perils From The Sea Nick Cave - Skeleton Tree The Dream Syndicate - The Universe Inside Modest Mouse - We Were Dead Before The Ship Even Sank The Barr Brothers Queen Of The Breakers.
