Grave New World - The Strawbs
Olias of Sunhillow - Jon Anderson
Seventh Sojourn - The Moody Blues.

I'm sure I will sound like a heretic here, but music has never featured that much in my life. Books however are a completely different matter .

Not heresy at all!

Yep, can't even remember what albums I had in my "youf". Give me a good book every time. 

Love books too, but music and sex are the real thing.

Haven't you realised yet, there is no "real thing". We're all living in the Matrix. 

I've been trying to think on this one, I seem to have forgotten most of it!

So, the ones which stick out are:

Queen - Greatest Hits II: We had some of the other albums, but this one got the most play.
Dire Straits - Brothers In Arms: Awesome album, still listen to it regularly now.
Alanis Morissette - Jagged Little Pill: One of the first albums I ever bought on CD!

my youth was a mix of Reggae and Ska even though I was a skinhead in the 80'S  I wasn't very conventional liked to read and grow Cacti not your typical Skinhead I admit LOL
but main three
Hazel O'connor Breaking glass
Bob Marley any album
Madness

but my musical tastes changed a few years ago to listening to Rammstein (German industrial metal) now I have no eardrums left

Adgreed, although i actually preferred the more intimate Love Over Gold album.

Belting album !
Cheers - Phil.

Led Zeppelin III - Led Zeppelin
In the court of the crimson King - King Crimson
Photo Finish - Rory Gallagher.

Black Rose - Thin Lizzy
Bat Out of Hell - Meatloaf
Down to earth - Rainbow

My first three albums - all aged 10:

AC/DC: Back in Black
Iron Maiden: Killers
The Police: Ghost in the Machine

Still got 'em all in their original vinyl / cassette... as well as on CD & digital now

Have you noticed, in the main wargamers tend to prefer the noisy hard rock stuff? Dr Freud might have something to say about that. 

And that's always been true as well. Wargamers have little taste (myself excluded obviously    )

Anything by Buddy Holly
Beach Boys - All vinyl up to and including 'Smiley Smile'
Four Seasons - 'Editione D'Oro'
Clancy Brothers & Tommy Makem - 'The First Hurrah' and other

AHEM !!

I have the ultimate taste.....

Ray's right though....Hard Rock seems to be the particular 'genre' that the majority ? of wargamers seem to gravitate to....(or from)
What I found rather spooky, from a few years back....Was that when I put in my very first order to Amazon.....I got back a list of other items "that you might like."

The were spot on in just about every case.....From a rock CD...They could have a good guess as to the books I'd like....and a lot of other stuff.
Are we all that predictable ?....Horrifying !

Good to see that our friends on the forum aren't quite SO predictable.....A nice selection of albums from different eras and styles/genres.
Cheers - Phil.

You really shouldn't have let Amazon insert that chip in your head - I know it qualifies you for free postage but there's so many downsides. Of course there's nothing to worry about with the GW chip that I have inserted. Now, must be off to buy more trolls for The Hobbit...

 

It is possible that other genuinely music-loving gamers have chosen not to stand up and be counted. I can't believe I'm the only one.
