Pursuing my ultimate musical orgasm
Any ageing Pfm'ers out there remember dialling 16 for the Dial-a-Disc service? If so, can you remember any artists/tracks you listened to on there that may have been influential in forming your tastes in music?
My earliest memory was frequently calling the service to try and catch The Sweet's "Blockbuster" in '73 (aged 12!) ... the first band I was in to. Seem to remember annoying my parents a lot by always being on the phone! And from there I "upgraded" to 10cc! Hmmm ... good memories!
Also - just found this demo of the service plugged into an ancient Strowger exchange. How times have changed!
