Waterloo single and Simon and Garfunkel's greatest hits in 1973. I had just left school and bought the LP with my first wage from my summer holiday job in the Knorr factory.

I love Andy Williams' voice.
Your mum had good taste!

Can't get used to Losing You - Andy Williams. My Mum said I wanted it, whereas I was into the Beatles at the time!!!!

Hello Everyone
Mine was 'Once Upon a Time' by Simple Minds (an LP).

It was 1985 and I was 13, so quite old really. It was the Summer holidays.
It cost £4.50 from whichever shop was WHSmith before it became WHSmith in Stourbridge.

I've no idea why I chose it. I think that I might have thought it was cool.
I was quite young for my age then. It must have been a bit of a quiet period for my mom and dad, just before I became a bit of a parental nightmare! ?
