I know I must have frustrated my mum no end playing the record over and over again. Everything about the design of the record label, the sleeve was artistic.
Playing the B-Side was just has exciting, which was Selector by The Selector!
From that day I changed my appearence overnight, and the first thing to go was the long hair. Having already enrolled into the army, it was easy to explain to my mates why the new haircut.
All my friends at the time had heard the new sound on the radio, and they where hooked too. Eventually one by one they all had haircuts, Crew Cut #1. I think maybe 10 of us at the time formed our own gang!
Then came the cut-off jeans, the 12 holed Doc Martins with yellow laces, and the Fred Perry T-Shirts.
The original Ben Sherman shirts came later!
