Sandtravellers pretty much fell apart after they were banned from the radio during the 1st Iraq war, I notice there is a flexi disc of theirs up on ebay, already outta my price range though.
 
You need to ask? :hilarious:

Just checking....so if I'd have put the Hollies, that list of musical entries would have been perfectly acceptable?! Honestly, the Osmonds are much under rated, wrote most of their successful stuff and a whole host of good album material too and they were and still are ballad supremos! It wasn't all saccharine filled slush though, they were actually styled by Elvis Presley you know...hence the white jumpsuits!
 
First 10 songs on shuffle

David Bowie- Life on mars?
Biffy Clyro- Born on a horse
The La's- Liberty Ship
Vega4- Traffic Jam
REM- The Apologist
Buffalo Tom- Pendleton
Prefab Sprout- All the world loves lovers
Depeche Mode- Just Cant get Enough
Stone Roses- Fools Gold
The Maccabees- First Love

I know the brothers wanted to rock out, like Crazy Horses (a track I love), but the record company made them put out the lovey-dovey cheese overload stuff.

Ok, I'll let you off then! Crazy Horses was banned in a few countries cos people thought it was about drugs!
