MEMORY TAPES: 2ND NOVEMBER 2012

This week's Memory Tape comes from Jodey McVie in Hull, who writes...

"This compilation was sent to me by an ex-boyfriend before he was my boyfriend. He was an impressionable 18 year old local musician and I a 20 year old University student looking to find my place in Hull.

"We both did them at the time and I'm sure it was a case of trying to impress by being as eclectic as possible to show our wide scoping musical taste. I can't say everything on there totally hit the spot but I still occasionally play it now and it reminds me of those excellent times. It obviously did its job as we went out for seven years, I didn't move back home after University and I'm still here now.

"I'm still in contact with Jonee, my ex (guitarist in the awesome Fonda 500), although our lives have taken us down different paths. This compilation reminds me of why I'm the person I am today and this surely can't be a bad thing. It does break my one fundamental compilation rule though - more than one track by the same artist. I'll let him off..."
