The Greatest
Introduction People often ask me what my favourite thing is, be it film, album or song, and usually I say I just like what I like. I do have a favourite film and album and have documented them in Vocal stories which I have included in the conclusion of this playlist.

Captain Lockheed And The Starfighters
Introduction Although I have always said that the most important thing for me is the music, my reawakened love for vinyl has made me fall in love with some of the more excellently presented albums, and I remember loving the embossed cover of this album as well as a lot of the songs.

Revamping My Teenage Record Collection
Introduction I was born in 1957 and as a teenager built up a vinyl and cassette collection. I knew that I had to move to CD when my daughter Juliet showed me what she could to a vinyl record with the player needle, though not a dangerous as what Kirsty did with metal magazine separators and a mains plug.

A Plagiaristic Poetic Progressive Playlist
Introduction This just came into my head because I have become a member of this group , and many of the records in my collection appear on the group and the people seem really welcoming and engaging, but the group has disappeared now.

A Gifted CD
The CD was compiled with others in a case that, if memory serves, was a bit like a photo album with those filmy sleeves. When late-elementary or early-middle school me discovered it while helping my grandmother babysit some of my cousins for the summer, finding the title of the CD seemed impossible. The display side was almost entirely black with a small relief of a coiled snake. Younger-me thought it must be called 'Elektra' since that was one of the words that stood out.

The Downward Spiral by Nine Inch Nails . Content Warning.
Thirty years on, Nine Inch Nails' The Downward Spiral still feels like a fresh breath of thick, toxic-filled, self-hatred-driven, cathartic air. This album is not a pretty journey to take. Anyone who has heard it will attest to that fact. So why have I chosen to write about its importance to me personally?
