No particular order either.....

Marc Bolan Trex - Get it on BRILL, as is all of T.REX.

Eddie cochran- C'mon Everybody Even Brillier, did you know his car crashed in Chippenham leading to his death and the first policeman at the scene was Dave Dee from DaveDee, Dozy, Beaky, Mick & Titch.

Buddy Holly- Rave On - Great

Squeeze - Goodbye Girl - Don't know of it.

Madonna- True Blue - again don't know it.

Luckily I can plug mine straight into my computer, then there's plenty of free software to copy it.

The one I use is called 'audacity' definitely free for Macs, and I'm pretty sure it's free on Windows too.

My top 5 isn't really a fair representation as there's no Hendrix, Zeppelin or the Clash on there, and they're probably my 3 favourite bands.

I suppose a lot of favorite songs are triggered by memories.

Jimi Hendrix - All along the watchtower When I was in the RN in the 60/70's

The Kinks - All day and all of the night When I was in my last year at school 1964

The Kinks - You really got me When I was in my last year at school 1964

The kinks - Waterloo sunset When I was in the RN based in Chatham in the 60's

Jimi Hendrix - Purple haze When I was best man at my mates wedding 1974?

Although one of the best wedding songs as the bride was walking up the aisle during my mates wedding in the RN in the 70's was.

"Whiter shade of pale" by Procol Harum

For me it's what I grew up with, and then carried on listening to because everything in the charts is shite.

Obviously age and the the decade comes into it. My last year at school was 1964 and I remember while doing my grocery bike round about this time of year, all the bedroom windows were open to let the air in and all I could hear was this song "she loves you" by the Beetles and "my boy lollipop" by Millie.

In the school library the teachers said "How can you listen to that rubbish?"

That is why when my kids(who have fled the nest by the way) play their music and I think "How can you listen to that rubbish?" I tend to understand why they like their music and not mine.

Albeit my daughter does like my kind of music, i.e. The Stones and Jimi Hendrix.

I definitely agree with you Mike, but I was bought up in a family with eclectic tastes in music, anything from motown to hard rock to classical. My kids have to suffer my blaring of music (although my eldest daughter takes after me and has a good rocking out) so I in turn have to suffer there "tutt". The only limitations I have is...no one direction...unless theyre being shot that is :yeah:

Took a normal record player.

Plugged a phono (ye olde headphones jack size) adapter into the headphones socket.

Plugged a male-to-male 3.5mm (modern earphones jack size) audio lead* into the adapter

Plugged the other end of the audio lead into the mic input jack of the PC.

Stick record on, record on PC, save as MP3 file.

Job done.

*3.5mm male-to-male audio lead is found at any decent PC shop (including PC World) for a couple quid and often comes with any PC monitor that has it's own speakers.

Im a massive cradle of filth fan but im sure you golden oldies ears cant handle any of that.

But if you "you tube" cradle of filth temptation or stay, then um sure you may like their covers of those two good songs

Cradle of Filth are good but this 'Golden Oldie' prefers System of a Down. BYOB is my favourite.
