I'm young Reg, but it's still odd when I read someone on here was born when "The Bartman" was at number one.

I'd happily swap not having a number 1 for 'Karma Charmeleon' though!!!

I love a bit of George Frideric me...it's an interesting thought that very few who were his contemporaries, would have ever heard his music.  Which is one reason by being around in the late 20th, early 21st century is ace.
