My first reaction to listening to the two albums was to be amazed at how fast the songs seemed, both in terms of tempo and in the way they just kept coming, one after the other.

(A later deal I made from a different person's older brother's collection saw me acquire a copy of Ultravox's 'Young Savage' single from their pre-Midge Ure-era - if you've never heard this I suggest you trawl download sites for it immediately - or buy Ha! Ha! Ha! - as it's a bona fide new wave classic that will make you wonder how they 'progressed' to Vienna is less than two years.) Knowing that Quartet was a terrible album I of course had nothing to lose and the deal was sealed. A mutual friend urged me to reconsider, citing examples from the lyric sheets that he thought would put me off. I thought this was slightly cheeky (it was 2 LPs for 1 after all) but he couldn't agree quicker. Aged about 14 at the time, I'd only ever heard 'Bonzo Goes To Bitburg' on a Beggars Banquet sampler LP, but keen to hear more and knowing that the friend was an Ultravox fan I offered him my copy of their Quartet LP. One such offer was the first two Ramones albums.
Filed between ' Quadrophenia (Original Soundtrack) ' and The Real Kids (eponymous).įor some reason I was often offered records at school, usually ones that belonged to the seller's older brother.
