What are the strangest records in your collection ?..

[Ken L]

I Have:

 

In no particular order:

 

The Laughing Gnome - David Bowie.

Lucy in the sky with Diamonds - William Shatner.

Walk the dog - Laurie Anderson.

The ballad of Bilbo Baggins - Leonard Nimoy.

 

I have others too.

[Steve Walker]

Trout Mask Replica - Captain Beefheart and His Magic Band

[Mat Hillman]

Wow my Adam and the Ants album doesn't seem so bad now!

 

 

Mat

[Paul_D]

An old Nolans tape - I forgot to cross the editors choice box when I was foolish enough to be a Brittania Music Club member.

[Elton]

I have some Betty Boo.....

[jeepster]

I can just picture you doing the doo Elton

[Elton]

I can just picture you doing the doo Elton

 

I think it was the thought of doing the doo with Betty that inspired me to buy them

 

Oh, and I also have an early Rolf Harris vinyl and more recent CD, although I never wanted to tie his kangaroo down, just for the record.

 

Christ, I'm sad....

[BoozleBear]

I have some Dr & the Medics on vinyl and also Hole in My Shoe by Neil!!!

[argyll]

Some of the oddest in the box relegated to my loft made various top thirty worse records of all time lists, the most infamous list being compiled by Kenny Everett.

 

Jess Conrad made it onto the list I think three times. Who can forget 'Why Am I Living ?'. You'll wonder why too when you hear the flip side, a scary little ditty called 'This Pullover' I have this record and its apparently now a collectors item. For those that prefer their lyrics on the totally banal side and their vocals on the permanently flat side here it is.

"Hearken to the Witch's Rune" by Dave & Toni Arthur. I'm not sure if the BBC knew about this when Toni fronted "Playaway" for 7 years...
