The Audio A-Z: A


I have decided to open up and give you an all-access look at my personal music collection, warts and all! Being a sentimental human being, I've still got a lot of my childhood favourites on tap. This all makes for an 'interesting' contrast with my more recent rockier tastes ;) So occasionally I'll be posting about bands and artists I love/ have loved and any mildly entertaining tales I may have about them...

So, fittingly, first up in my collection is a British band called 'A'.

 I first heard them on the radio when I was about 16 or 17 and loved their rocky sound. I had just recently started listening to more alternative music so I gobbled this up. Before then I'd only really heard chart music and suddenly this whole other musical world opened up before me. It was a very exciting time in my life and certainly changed my whole direction!

Funnily enough, the main vocalist from A, Jason Perry, is now a producer and has worked with a few of my more recent favourite bands. I clearly dig his style! I've never seen A live but fortunately they have a habit of playing reunion shows so maybe one day :)

So without further ado, here are my favourite tracks from A!


The track that got me hooked was 'Nothing', their lead track from their third album 'Hi-Fi Serious'. It's my favourite A song :)



And again from 'Hi-Fi Serious', a song called 'Starbucks'. I loved all this 'sticking it to the man' music in my late teens. Catch-y. But not sure about the visors ;)


These are the two songs that really stick out for me but I do suggest checking out their other albums if you're enjoying this!
