My first record is Paul Anka Love me warm and tender because my mother and father had a record player when I was seven and that’s the first record I heard.

Next record is My Boy Lollipop by Milly – that’s one my first records I bought my own pocket money and Milly signed my  photograph.


Next record is called Under the Boardwalk by Drifters. This is really good dancing. When I had record I danced all the living room, sofa carpet anywhere.

But then my love music is folk. I love Dylan and Joan Baez. But I think if one record is something by Bob Dylan, probably Desolation Row.

After that there’s Motown music, and I think my favourite record is called Ain’t too proud to beg with Temptations.

Soon come of Summer of Love ('67) and my first favourite record is a band called Love, a song called Alone Again.

Then I really love first proper rock bands. First band I like is Led Zeppelin Stairway to Heaven. Obviously Santana and Free and later Jan Joplin and Jimi Hendrix. I like all the records here but I choose Rolling Stone You can’t always get what you want  because it’s memory for me.

Of course then came Bob Marley, Exodus or Stir it Up, I can't choose!

Early punk for me it’s not too good. Doesn't appeal. But after punk, I like Meatloaf. Or my favourite two songs, Babe Ruth Black dog and Pavlov’s Dog She came shining.

And I like a band called John Otley and Wild Willy Barrett, the song is called Beware of the flowers.

Of course I like reggae and I like more Motown. So I like the records called Jump Pointer Sisters and I like Jimmy Clift Many rivers to cross.

Then later I like the band Communards, Jimmy Somerville and Richard Grey You are my world.

I don’t know how many records I’ve got. Soon my taste dancing music now, first Relax Frankie goes to Hollywood, I like that.

I don't like pop music but sometimes I like completely different music like world music.
