Pinball Wizard by the new seekers and skinhead moonstomp by Symarip around 1972/73. Thereafter a number of the old skinhead ska beats from the early sixties by black skinhead bands and solo artists. I had Slider by TRex the day it came out.

First record bought (albeit by parents) Geoff Love And His Orchestra : Big War Movie Themes, because I loved 633 Squadron track.
First single bought (albeit by parents) Billy Don't Be A Hero : Paper Lace...followed by ABBA : Waterloo.... and Rubettes : Sugar Baby Love.
All played on a Fidelity Mono HF43 record player!
I love ya Wingy and don’t take this the wrong way ( ooooh matron) butvthats a shocking list of shite I’m assuming you grew out of it. Between the two of us,I bought a Billy ray Cyrus CD ,though I was in a bad place at the time No offence

That album is a life changer.
For me up there with MC5 ‘kick out the jams’ and of course Never Mind The Bollocks by the Pistols.

On the subject of the Sex Pistols.
I had a tight-a***e aunt aunt who used to trawl Llanelli Market for the cheapest Xmas presents possible. She bought me a Top Of The Poppers LP that had this Pistols cover version on it. I latter progressed to buying the infamous Spunk bootleg in 1980 after starving myself to use my school dinner money to help save up to get it.
I was always envious of those that had the limited edition NMTB version with the one sided Submission single. Ditto those that bought The Stranglers limited edition Black And White LP with the bonus EP single with Mean To Me on it also. It was all to do with having enough pocket money savings to get things early.
Argus!

I am blessed to being able to listen to almost anything, the only thing I have to immediately switch off is Jazz, which sounds to me to be like there are a load of musicians making up a tune as they go along.

I don’t like jazz at all. Smartaes playing in a dissonant mess
That said , I can play a bit of jazz on my piano as it’s easier than on a guitar Django was a man apart I don’t really call his oeuvre jazz as it was so visceral and thecwork of a musical genius

JJ Cale the man who had the voice of Mark Knopfler twenty years before he wrote sultans of swing. Look at Eric Claptons discography too. JJ written all over it.

I've got the MC5 Kick out the Jams with the rude word inserted on the write up on the album. I believe later copies had to be changed. First record I bought...think it was Free Electric Band Albert Hammond? However it could of been T Rex or Slade. My older sister also had Bowie 45s David Cassidy ouch and some infamous prize turkey who we can't mention anymore.

Always preferred Paranoid, Vol4 and Sabotage to Masters of Reality. All great records though. First album bought...probably Hawkwind, Hall of the Mountain Grill.

Django Reinhardt was a swing musician rather than jazz. I think there is a difference between the two. And you are right, the guy was a genius with his three fingers!

Ive still got my album of Never mind the Bollocks, I remember trying to serenade two girls from Birmingham who were staying at their Aunts next to us with "You Need Hands to hold a little baby" who killed Bambi would never have worked

But the chords he used were primarily jazz chords 7th 9ths even 11ths and stacking 3rds Way about my pay grade Nobody has ever got near him
