    By my late-teens I'd already decided what was good music and what was bad then all this new-fangled Madchester and Rave stuff came along, now they are dropping, misery.

    I was about 12 when I first heard stone roses , then my bro started giving me tapes <laugh> of happy Monday , the charlatans, spirals etc

    That's pretty much when good British guitar bands were at their peak ...

    They were signed to Factory Records at the same time as Black Grape. Reached number 1 in the US Billboard Top 50, and their biggest hit was in the soundtrack of the Gwyneth Paltrow/John Hannah film, Sliding Doors.

    No need to apologise to me. But I will pass on your regrets to Richard McNevin-Duff, who, despite the name, is neither taig nor Jock.

    For some reason YouTube won't show Drug Soup which is the song in Sliding Doors but this should show you what the floppy fringed twangers look like

    Not only is Saturn 5 the best Inspiral Carpets tune it is one of the best songs to come out of the Baggy/Britpop era. In my not very humble opinion of course.

    Does your sense of smell compensate for not being able to hear or speak?
