all you 'older MNers' who would have received LP's for xmas........which one would take you back to a christmas of your teens???

[psychohohohoho]

mine is the pet shop boys LP that had 'shopping' on it, the first Aha album (take on me/sun always shines on tv), and bonjovi (slippery when wet).

I got each LP at xmas when I was 13/14/15 (one per year).

what was yours???

oh, hunting high and low.......I used to know the words to that without hearing the music.....and sang it lots (altho badly).

I am 36 in jan......

Duran Duran Seven and the ragged Tiger, oh those were the days!
I loved Simon Le Bon.

Also loved Careless Whisper by George Michael and Crazy for you by Madonna. Loved my slow dances

I did go through a Bobby Brown phase though ??!!

April for me.
DH is bracing himself, I don't do birthdays very well

saltire....I wanna night like that, it sounds huge fun

Happy Christmas 1977!

...and yes, I was pleased to receive it.

My innocent 11 year old psyche was unable to comprehend my Dad and older sisters' mirth at 'Pheasant Plucker's Son'. Still less could I understand why they constantly encouraged me to sing this fine ditty....

My mum didn't want me to get the Adam and the Ants Kings album. My dad though was a great music fan (admittedly it was pipe bands) and as far as he was concerned if I wanted vinyl, I would get it.

Psycho - it really was a great night. You should see if any of your friends have a music system with a record player and have one.

You make me feel so old if you were 9 when Adam Ant was strutting his stuff. I must have been all of 11 or so!

Jumpsuits - aah. I had a horrid blue shiny one with zips all over, which I used to wear with my white fringed cowboy boots. Believe me, it was every bit as bad as it sounds...

I won a Bucks Fizz album in a raffle when I was 10, only thing I have ever won and I was thrilled.

When DH and I got together we had a laugh at each other's LP's. I think my "Hip Hop and Rapping in the House" got the greatest chuckle.

especially for you......... kylie and jason - im sure they were xmas no 1 but i do sadly own it on vinyl!

jinglebella - hello, how's things. I was 9 when Kings of the Wild Frontier was released, in my teens when some of the later stuff came out. I've just turned 38

Hello Saltiresays SANTA

Yup, I would have been an old haggard 12 year old by then, wearing Rimmel lip gloss or whatever lip gloss came in those glass tubes with a roller on the end and smelling of fruit.

Anyone?

getting ready to go out I put the radio on a they are playing old stuff (like we used to dance to in late 80's) and there is a song that goes "girl am I dreaming, I must be dreaming, lying here so close to you, by my side". Bloke singing.

Prize for whoever can tell me what it is - doesn't come up on google.

ooh cherry lip gloss roll on - heeave!

Oooh for me it would have to be the Top of the Pops albums that came out every xmas.

Really, really bad covers of the year's hits.

Or anything from the K-Tel label

For some reason this album popped in to my head immediately. Takes me right back to my teen bedroom.

Go West.

I am now listening to Aha.......I had to after I was posting about it.

retiredgoth2....I would love to have been a fly on the wall of your house.....I will bet you were very cute!!!!

Psycho, you are a saddo!
But
I love you!

back atcha.....

me, I'm touchy (touching you), me, I'm touchy, I'm gonna get ya!!!

Haircut 100's Pelican West

I have the A-Ha DVD....

Gotta be better than Casualty (Freeview is f*cked due to bad weather)

I also have Duran Duran!!!

Great Sat night in.

Phil Specter's Christmas Anthems - or summat like that.
