neepheid Posted January 7, 2014 Report Share Posted January 7, 2014 As I mentioned in the "Whatcha listenin' to?" thread, watching an ABBA documentary last night sparked off a wave of nostalgia in me, and brought back into sharp focus the ceremony of putting a record on, or loading and rewinding a tape to the beginning. Some of you may have begun your musical journey by listening to the music of your parents/guardians. Track 1, side 1 always sticks in the mind for obvious reasons - it's the track you most readily associate with the album in the predominantly sequential world of the record/tape. Enough waffle, here's 11 that I remember, in alphabetical by artist, then chronological by release date so no favourites: Artist - Album - Track ABBA - Greatest Hits Vol. 2 - Gimme! Gimme! Gimme! (A Man After Midnight)ABBA - Super Trouper - Super TrouperCream - Fresh Cream - I Feel FreeCream - Wheels of Fire - White RoomCurved Air - Airconditioning - It Happened TodayEmerson, Lake and Palmer - Trilogy - The Endless Enigma (Part One)Genesis - Nursery Cryme - The Musical BoxGenesis - Selling England By The Pound - Dancing With the Moonlit KnightCharles Penrose - All Aboard! - The Laughing PolicemanSteppenwolf - Easy Rider Soundtrack - The PusherWishbone Ash - Argus - Time Was And one that my naive kid self didn't listen to because he thought the sleeve looked boring: Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young - Deja Vu - Carry On Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Woodsinho Posted January 7, 2014 Report Share Posted January 7, 2014 There's one that sticks out more than any other in my memory and that's: Genesis - A Trick Of The Tail - Dance On A Volcano Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
