2. Happy Mondays Step On

3. Stone Roses I am the resurection

4. Blur Theres no other way

5. Charlatons Only one I know

6. Stone Roses Fools Gold

7. Primal Scream Loaded

8. Blur Song 2

9. Oasis Cigrettes and alcohol

10. Pulp Common People

11. Ash Girl from Mars

12. Carter USM Sheriff Fatman

13. Supergrass Alright

14. Wonderstuff Size of a cow

15. James Sit down

16. Prodigy Firestarter

17. Underworld Born Slippy

18. Mock Turtles Can you dig it

19. Northside Can I take a trip

If we take the collective Top 10's (number 1's = 10 points and so on) then we can do a end of week chart or vote (that'll help our 1000 posts targit)

 

If you need some reminding, the chart of my Indie night plays is still here on this board.

I don't know if this counts but what about 'Vodoo Ray' by A Guy Called Gerald-perhaps more dance than indie? Classic anyway.

Agree with almost all bands on your list. I'm gonna make a shocking confession now and say I've never heard a Carter USM track and in fact I hadn't heard of them at all until I started posting on this board! But don't worry, I will make the effort to 'discover' them!

Voodoo Ray is still the best acid house record ever, it shaped a generation, I've got it and I love it!

 

Chubbhead when you discover Carter USM you'll never be the same again, they are possibly the best band of the early 90's and were criminally regarded as a novelty act by the ones who hyped them up as the best band in the world in the 1st place (i.e the NME). The amount of NME and MM covers they had in 91/92 it's really amazing that a band that big (they headlined Glastonbury in 1992) are now almost forgotton.

 

Basically what I'm trying to say is i'll sort you a tape!

Chubbhead. You didn't just send EFMTFTV your address did you? If so, that wasn't clever.

 

EFMTFTV, will you be there on Saturday?

I've heard 15 of them. All pretty good stuff. It's not Propagandhi, Guns N Roses or RATM obviously, but whatever flicks your switch.

EFMTFTV How many of them have you seen live? I only saw blur and the stone roses from the top list, but i've seen 11 from the second list (not bad for a librarian!)

I thought of another top 5, but it's not amusing and no-one else will probably want to give me theirs, oh well never mind

Top 5 books

1. The Outsider - Albert Camus

2. Straw dogs - John Gray (this has nothing to do with the film of the same name)

3. The fall and rise of Reginald Perrin - David Nobbs

4. Notes from the underground - Fyodor Dostoyevsky

5. Nausea - Jean-Paul Sartre

I may have heard 12. Carter USM Sheriff Fatman

I should imagine you've heard Size of a cow. Can U dig it is currently being used on the Vodaphone advert with David Beckham in the supermaket q.

Northside is probably the best baggy record ever - find it and listen

First List:

EMF, Blur, Charlatons, Carter USM, James, Jesus Jones, Neds Atomic Dustbin. I've seen Tom HIngley preform the hits of the Inspiral Carpets but not the Carpets themselves.

Second list:

Blur, Oasis, Ash, Prodigy, Pulp, Cornorshop, Strokes, cast, Chumbawamba, Charlatans, Space, Manics, Catatonia. That's 13 wooooh!

Well he said that now he's got my address he'll come round for dinner! While he is welcome to he should bear in mind that A) My dad is an Ex-mamber of the Old Bill

B) The cooking round our gaffe ain't that great! (don't tell my mum I said that! <img src="/forums/images/icons/smile.gif" alt="" />
