	First record that was bought for me was ... The Beatles.. an EP with 4 songs on... 'Twist And Shout, A Taste Of Honey, Do You Want To Know A Secret and There's A Place' I was 2 at the time and apparently I used to do the twist whenever I heard 'Twist And Shout' even in Lewis's record department.. how embarrassing. The first record I ever bought myself was ... Slade.. 'Sqeeze Me Pleeze Me'.
