    O.K. we all know how those records that we loved when we were younger sound like crap now that we've gotten a bit older and slower yet some of them still manage to sound as good today as the day we first heard them. So here's a quick list in no particular order Hanx :- Stiff Little Fingers The Sensual World :- Kate Bush Live Chronicles :- Hawkwind Fresh Fruit For Rotten Vegetables :- Dead Kennedys The Lion And The Cobra :- Sinead O'Conner Surfa Rosa/Come On Pilgrim :- Pixies Violent Femmes :- Violent Femmes So what do you lot think has stood the test of time? The album should probably be around 10 years old or older to qualify pseudonym67 My Articles[^] "We're Living At The Edge Of The World And The Criticisms Coming And It's Dragging Us Down But I Wont Be Shot Down" At The Edge Stiff Little Fingers

                  Too bad. I have a decent amount of records (The Who, Pink Floyd, U2, Dire Straits, etc.) that I love to throw on when hanging around the house cooking, playing cards, etc. Thr rest of the time, grunge is where I grew up. Have you seen the album coming out in a few weeks from Velvet Revolver? It's the guys from GNR with Scott Weiland from STP singing. I can't wait for that. The version of Pink Floyd's "Money" they did in "The Italian Job" was great.
