Bought two from wh Smith’s The Boomtown Rats - I don’t like Mondays & Angelic upstarts - I’m an upstart
I’ve wondered whether it was the F-111 double-vinyl remix pack of Green Velvet ‘Flash’ with the DT remix, or the below. But I think it was probably the below:
Kismet’s records were beautiful things - super heavy vinyl, great design, deep sound.
hugopal Got loads on kismet. Earth is still my fav.
hugopal Fair play Hugo 👍
I actually have a cool answer for this one, original pressing of Metallica’s Master of Puppets. It goes for about 50 €, so not super expensive. I still own it. Have not played it on vinyl since 1994 when I bought the remastered CD.
I bought Both the boomtown rats and upstarts singles..

My then girlfriend, now wife, was in Toronto for her practicum and brought a copy of scorchio back for me. Bought my first set of 1200s a few weeks later and played it to death with a handful of other records while I figured out how to beat match. It still reminds me of those days.
303abuser Didn’t by any other record before you got your decks. My very first acid house records were Baby Ford - Oochy Koochy & Urban Acid Lp
Dubman The guy I bought my decks from also sold me two crates of records. Enough to learn on without going completely insane listening to the same tracks back to back for months.
ScottBailey I genuinely love that track.
First album was Peter Lazonby – Your Humble Servant from a random record store in Beverly, just south of York.
First single bought from Abbey Discs in Dublin.
SM001 First single bought from Abbey Discs in Dublin.
Never forget me and my mate going halves on buying F.A.C.T in Tor Records, Glastonbury. We got it home and were not happy, because all we’d heard Carl Cox play was Fantazia and Dreamscape gigs. But remember hearing ‘Orange Theme’ and thinking “Thiss is something different! I like this a lot!”. Rest was history…
ScottBailey A mates older brother recorded the CD onto tape for me and I played them to death. FACT and the first Renaissance mix. Like you said the rest is history.
ScottBailey My mate was on with Coxy in Germany and Coxy signed his copy of F.A.C.T. It’s framed in his studio.
