Brilliant. Just missed seeing Ash on tour a few years ago. Guitar solo on 'Leaf & Stream' is one of my all time favourites.

I'm with Spugsy on Appetite for Destruction, also Def Leppard Hysteria. Too be honest, I tend to remember lyrics on tracks for years, for reasons some of you may already know!

An Evening Wasted With...: Tom Lehrer.
Mind you, on re-hearing it recently, I was suprised to find that, although I knew the lyrics, I didn't have them in quite the right order. On a bad day, The Masocism Tango still manages to raise a laugh.:thumbup:

So I guess we're so very old and are the only ones on this bored who still have vinyl in our possession which will, thanks to the wonders of the computer, be transferred to our Apple system this summer. Have no idea whether it works on other systems - or is anybody interested in the vinyl once we've copied it over?

Also singalong G'N'R appetite for destruction, new order 'technique', possibly the finest album ever written.
