Not a tribute band fan, but these guys cover classic albums and they did it proud. Can follow them on Insta.

Managed to get this very fuzzy shot of one in my garden a few years ago. Unfortunately I haven’t seen one since.

A small sample of the vast number of stubs my late husband saved. Great memories of some fantastic gigs.

Kate Bush and The Undertones are certs. The others are going to have to fight it out.

The first album I ever bought after hearing Are Friends Electric on TOTP. My hard saved pocket money was well spent.

As with previous Mercury Rev albums this has taken a few listens for me. Once drawn in though, a true to form outstanding album that for me is particularly poignant.

Repost with the first album you bought with your own money.
