 Freebird makes me think of living in Southsea...had a mate, I suppose a bit like fB who lived at home with his mum....they had a massive house, and he had a self contained 2 bed flat in the basement. His older bros were notorious hardmen...good to keep on trhe right side of, the family of Scottish extract made their money by working mines in South Africa.

 Me mate shared with Powerful Pierre, an enigmatic art school drop out, who looked a bit like Che....he also had an interesting collection of nazi memorabilia.

 Ginge, who lived round the corner was like axs, only not so clever...they used to like to go down to the sea at night for a swim....not for me too dangerous and I had a bird at home...one night Ginge never came back.

1) Pink Floyd - Wish You Were Here:
Takes me back to 15 y/o, living with my folks, growing up in Catford. My first taste of Floyd.

2) Screwface - Brainkilers/Third Party:
The track that got me into D&B back in 92/93. Whaling vocals and intense b-line. I'd never heard anything like it until THAT day when I was strolling to school in Bellingham and heard this hammering out a window in the local council estate.

3) No Woman, No Cry - Bob Marley:
Now I'm coming to the end of my first year at Uni and am sitting in some second year students garden eating pizza, enjoying a few cold beers and a cheeky schmoke. The perfect recipe for enjoying Bob.

4) Ashes to Ashes - David Bowie
By now I'm in my second year at Uni and mixing with some real mind-benders. I'm listening to The Doors, Hendrix, Ozric Tentacles, loads of Floyd and working all the hours God sends in a cracking little boozer. The land lord was a BIG Bowie fan which meant free beer for as long as I could sustain a conversation about his favorite singer/songwriter and general freak. I grew to love the stuff so was generally p1ssed as a newt thanks to this tune!

5) Fight Music - D12
Now fully graduated (some 10 years on) and working my ass off to pay the mortage. I'd always been a big fan of Rap and Hip-Hop but got into the whole Shady Records movement quite late, i.e. 'The Eminem Show'. This was the track that did it for me. Reminds me of hot, sticky days in the office 'living the dream' and doing up my first proper house on the London/Kent border. Much simpler times!

Christ... I could go on with this forever...! Better stop in - typical Hanrahan style - with the Top 5!
