Location: [Male] East Yorkshire | ^^ Never heard of a band called "Tongue" 
Anyway, it was 'R' ... you could have had The Rolling Stones.   
S = STYX
Not at all 'pop' (which I noticed only recently - oops) but fits nicely alongside Ian's excellent choice of Kansas for 'K'. ('Left Overture' is one of my all-timers.)
And Mal's F = 'Faithless' (the best) and D = 'Deep Purple in Rock' was the first album I ever bought (on a camping holiday in Germany).

I play my enemies like a game of chess, where I rest,
No stress
If you don't smoke sess, lest.
I must confess, my destiny's manifest
In some Goretex and sweats I make treks like I'm homeless

Great Double CD for those times when you want something in the background that isn't too distracting - like during a game of Scrabble. - Has surprising moments. (Trance/Ambient) |
