I'm that old I can't fooking remember <laugh>

I'm pretty sure it was "Madness, my girl" . But "embarrassment" rings a bell too.
I can't remember the first album.
I was into the police and ska/two tone.
Madness, specials , the beat, selector etc. and then the mod revival.
Think it might of been the police, regatta de blanc, quickly followed by The Jam, Setting sons.

I was just hooked on the Jam from then on back in the day.
 
One of my first albums I bought was Never mind the Bollocks by the Sex Pistols

And do you still like it?

Never realised that Sting was a Geordie till years later. I just disliked him for being an arrogant twerp.
