when my buddy Greg bought it on a late November morning record store trip (I bought Robyn Hitchcock's Perspex Island) and put the tape in the car, it boomed like Def Leppard.
Although I already loved Teen Spirit it was hearing On A Plain on Simon Barnett's GLR radio show that made Nevermind a must-purchase for me, as the blend of harmonies and heavy guitars was absolutely intoxicating, and definitely tapped into what I'd liked about Def Leppard as a kid.

Watching “Live at the Paramount” on AXS TV… this is a pretty ripping concert film, never seen it before.

Yes. I don't know jack about filming a concert (or filming anything for that matter) but I've always thought that one looks incredible. Really feels like you're there, practically on stage at times.

When the With The Lights Out box was released I had a weekly slot on the 6Music breakfast show reviewing that week's new releases. I chose Do Re Mi as the track to be played on air, and after playing it the producer took me aside and had a frank and rather scathing chat with me over what constituted music you might feasibly play on a national breakfast show.
