I'm surprised no-one has yet suggested Bohemian Rhapsody - ground breaker. And the Sargent Pepper album - trend setter.
Dad and I watched games standing on the muddy slope of the Holmesdale Road end. He cheered and I rattled. |

song 2 by Blur
Man is the most insane species. He worships an invisible God and destroys a visible Nature. Unaware that this Nature he’s destroying is this God he’s worshipping. Hubert Reeves |

Outshined soundgarden Heard it on some rock/alternative tv show that on at 3am in the early 90's just after a crazy fast pace cook show. Incredible voice Chris Cornell. Rip dream brother. Song by another great Jeff buckley

Foxtrot by Genesis. It is a cliche, but I never tire of Supper's Ready. Also Selling England by the Pound and Lamb Lies Down on Broadway. As a single track, it has got to be The Musical Box. Massive early Genesis fan. Post 76 - not so much.

Also Firth of Fifth; still sounds amazing.

If we are talking albums there are a good number, and among those for sure would be 'Tea for the Tiller Man' and 'Teaser and The Firecat' by Cat Stevens.

Oh! really martin. Good of you to let me know. I often think of that place and not surprised it's still going. It was always very popular (even 63 years ago!) Bet the old jukebox is gone though!
