I'd have an anxiety attack if I attempted one. :lol:

 

it's a challenge. getting in a combination of the albums you listened to the most at the time, a mix of different genres you were into and the ones that still stand up today. i could easily do another five or six versions of that list depending on metrics.

Some of that list might seem a bit shit but tbh I wasn't particularly cool as a kid in the 90's and things like Bon Jovi & Bush were big deals to me back then :D

Great albums man.

 

I know 2J's a big fan too.

 

I considered putting Seahorses on there too, but even though I loved that album, probably more than The Stone Roses, I knew they weren't up there with Kula Shaker and what Stone Roses would have been at their peak...when I was 9 :D
