Dee-vinyl sounds 27/04/14

With a tendency towards no affixed hairstyle and a unique approach to fashion that didn't always sit well with those who were obsessed with the hits of stock , Aiken and waterman there was no chance I was ever going to be part of the group of girls at school who were into beauty , hair and all that fancy stuff .

Likewise trying to find new ways to bunk off p.e instead of looking forward to it meant I was never going to be part of the sporty crowd either.

So the only place for me to fit in would be with the birds who loved their music. Obsessed by the sixth formers in their black and white stripy tights , granny dresses and interesting knitwear I was inspired as I grew older to move on from my only teenybopper group obsession with aha to listening to the smiths and the cure and later on blur , ride , the mock turtles and the stone roses . 

At home I poured over the contents of my parents  record collections and played them on my dad's white and orange vintage  60s record player. 

I bopped to elvis and Danny and the juniors on 78 , shimmied to Diana , the supremes and all the mainstays of Motown , became a massive fan of both the Beatles and the stones while my classmates were wondering if Jason still loved Kylie .

And while other loves may have been long forgotten my love for tracks rather than having pampered tresses or pert tits has remained so as a new part of my blog each week I'm going to list 20 tracks that I'm loving that week .

Some you will love , others might not be to everyone's taste but I refuse to apologise for any of them , they are me , they are ....Dee-vinyl sounds.
