A: First Album You Ever Bought - a compilation of rock songs; Deep Purple, Sabbath, Boston, Steppenwolf, Hendrix, etc.
B: The Band/Artist That Has Influenced Your Taste In Music The Most - I like so many different styles that it's hard to say. Possibly Billy Bragg, as he provided a bridge out of the constant punk, ska and reggae I was listening to at the time, to stuff like Woody Guthrie and Bob Dylan, thus broadening my horizons.
C: The Last Album You Bought - the new EP by Christine & The Queens; I think it's called La Vita Nuova.
D: Best Album Cover You Have Ever Seen - honourable mentions for One Step Beyond by Madness and Slave To The Rhythm by Grace Jones; but for an iconic piece of art that spans both front and back cover, Born To Run by Springsteen.
