Iggy Pop - The Idiot (1977)

Bowie’s all over this. While “Low” was the high mark of his career, he lent an almighty hand to the Iguana’s rehabilitation at the same time.

XTC - Drums And Wires (1979)

My first encounter with XTC was this record. Aside from the truly iconic cover that grabbed my attention, it was this record that helped me to move from listening to the marginally talented punk/post-punk bands to proper musicians that took risks.

Cream - Disraeli Gears (1967)

I remember seeing Cream’s farewell concert on the goggle box back in the early to mid 70’s. It was fairly brutal stuff that really didn’t hold that much interest for me.
