Classic FM Top 300

[1959_60]

Don't get involved in this 59er - it's just mine and Sinkov's annual "Easter wind up"!

Aye BT!

We know you too well

I only started listening to classical stuff seriously when I was in my late 30's.

I was lucky enough to spend my formative years in the 60's and 70's and the music was incredible.

My favorites were Pink Floyd, The Who, Wishbone Ash etc etc. But I also loved all the popular stuff, Motown, Glam Rock etc etc.
The music was completely different than the stuff that was around before. It was exciting, creative and made a great soundtrack to my life.
My Uni days revolved round music, ale and footy.

Happy days!

Similar tastes 59, I saw The Who at Nelson Imp in the 60s, Wishbone Ash at King George's Hall Blackburn in the early 70s and Floyd twice, at Earls Court and Maine Rd. Manchester while it was still there. Wishbone Ash are regulars now at the Grand in Clitheroe, I saw them only a few months back, only Andy Powell survives but they're still bloody good, I've seen the remnants of many bands and tribute bands from the 60s and 70s and I'd say Ash are the best I've seen.
