Re: Ageing Lurkers

[Morten Franck Johnsen <morten@skrivervik.no>]

I went to England for the first time in 1980 when I was 13.
I had only heard a few KB songs, like Wuthering heights, Wow 
and Babooshka, but I was curious and wanted to hear more. 

I found "Never for ever" on summer sale in Birmingham. That album 
always reminds me of summer in England, especially Delius, Egypt, 
Violin, Army dreamers and Infant kiss.

Later that year I bought Lionheart and Kick inside, in that order.

In school (must have been around 85) I spent all breaks for months
"competing" in quotes from KB lyrics. Chalk and blackboard.
Ahhh..... those memories.....:)
