hmm I listened to a few songs by the Magnetic Fields (dunno who uploaded that) - If I were to buy an album of theirs which would be a good one to start off with?

Hi, I did.

It's hard to say: The song I put on is from I - it's a good album but few of the songs are as good as I don't believe you and I thought you were my boyfriend (all the songs start with the letter I! Tracks run in alphabetical order! How's that for an album concept? Bit ropey actually...)

My favourite (and I haven't got them all) is 69 Love Songs. Which is a triple album - bit daunting but the first CD's fantastic and I'm just starting to discover the other two CD's are rather good as well.

Whether you buy the CD or download it, it's much cheaper on Amazon than iTunes (Amazon UK at least).

If you're looking to download some choice tracks:

The One You Really Love
Too Drunk To Dream
All My Little Words
The Dada Polka
If You Don't Cry
The Luckiest Guy On The Lower East Side
The Book Of Love
I Thought You Were My Boyfriend
Epitaph For My Heart
I Think I Need A New Heart
Meaningless
Papa Was A Rodeo

I was starting to think it was just me and Clodia bothered about this musical exchange...

Okay cheers, will buy the CD because it just seems a bit silly to me buying mp3 files - I'd much rather spend a few extra quid (or in this case it's the same price) for a hard copy. I've been listening to some of the music that's been posted but this is the first chance that I've really had to sit down and listen - Thos Henley is also good! Sorry I haven't uploaded anything but like Anet said I can't really think of any music I like that's not well-known but I'll have a think about it and maybe come up with something

Don't worry about that, nowadays any decent music is normally beyond the top 100 :P

I uploaded the Good the Bad and the Queen which is probably known to everyone here (sorry) but the music I'm into isn't exactly of my generation so I have no grasp of how well known a band is (or was) - all I know is that my friends haven't heard of them, which isn't really saying much since quite a lot of them haven't even heard of pulp either!

Never heard if Pulp?! The folly of youth... Actually I'm only just becoming aware of people who were big just three or four years before Pulp (I was 12 when mis-shapes came out - didn't know what the fuss was over common people!) such as The Stone Roses and Inspiral Carpets (who's name at first put me off), if someone had put This Is How It Feels by IC on yahoo a couple of months ago they'd have blown my tiny mind.

Oh Fred, your post about Inspiral Carpets and being 12 when Mis-Shapes came out just made me feel very old!

If it makes you feel any better I'm only 28 and losing my hair so it's not all good!

And just think, Jazza might not have even been born when Common People came out!

If it makes you feel any better you're younger than Eminem and he's cool with the kids, the youth, the hoodies, the bairns, the teeny boppers...

Pop down your local diner, enjoy a frothy coffee and see if they've got any of his records on the juke box.

 YES! But I Don't Want to Get Over You is one of my alltime favourites by ANY band ever!

I also love the video someone made to it:

I was one when common people came out (I say indignantly :P) though I have to say personally I don't see the appeal of eminem but I'm liking Inspiral Carpets!

Don't worry I'm quite alone when it comes to Eminem on this site!

My older brothers were into rap when I was just getting into music, but thankfully one was into Inspiral Carpets - Biggest Mountain was my 15 year old "Ironing my shirt getting ready to go out!" track... Can't say I'm into the long outro, but this was such a fine summer night song:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B70Qtxb_QvA

For the record, I was 16 when Common People came out, and feel quite lucky for that... Just discovering going out, good music at the time, leaving school and the best, hottest, longest summer holidays ever! (To kinda paraphrase Sturdy's book, or Steve in his top X records list - can't quite remember, but I do remember the quote about that Summer resonating)

I feel a bit uncomfortable with this thread. I wanna contribute but I can never think of the right song or artist to feature, it makes me feel...funny inside; slightly sick. Anyway, I really wanna contribute

I really loved The Auteurs in the early/mid 90's. It's a start I suppose.

I suspect I'll probably go a bit mad on here now. Sorry in advance. I just remembered Stereolab, in my opinion if you like Pulp you'll like Stereolab. Here's their classic track French Disko done on The Word (god I loved The Word).

Check out that Farfisa & Moog, they were a stunning live band too.
