She Loves You, The Beatles. I wanted Twist and Shout after seeing them on Sunday Night at the London Palladium the evening before, but it was an EP and out of my price range.

Music for pleasure was another cheap copy of the chart songs of the time.I even bought more than one of them. First single was “Take me back ‘ome”by Slade.

1979 and I was 9. There were a thousand numbered editions and my local music/video/tv repair shop in West Cork wouldn't order me one, so I missed out. Thankfully the thousand sold out and they issued more (un-numbered) and I grabbed one of them.
A couple of years later I bought another one in Tralee for a tenner. A week later I had a look at it and found out that it was not only one of the numbered ones, but Number 1. So I have the first thing U2 ever put on vinyl. It's in a bank vault now.
