Childhood bad tasteWhen we start out in the world it's not our fault if we accidentally latch on to liking really bad stuff. Well, at least, that's the only reason I can come up with for owning Huey Lewis and the News' album Fore!
What early bad taste can you confess to?

Imagine if you will...Its summer 1973, I am 13. Favourite wardrobe from the top downwards:
A camo pattern sun hat.
Long girly hair.
Cheap "Aviator" mirror shades from the market, broken and repaired with a bit of wire.
Purple "BRUTUS" shirt with big round collars.
Acrylic tank-top with alternating bright yello, bright pink and black stripes.
Woolworths flared brushed cotton (not even denim) jeans with fat belt loops that fastened over the belt with pop fasteners.
A plastic belt in white and navy with TWO pin things in the buckle..
Flourescent lime green or pink socks.
Brothel creepers from Freeman Hardy and Willis in Aylesbury....
Wow, pretty cool in a retro way I hear you say.
In this extraordinary get up I used to wander about the fields where I lived (ie in middle of nowhere) wondering why farm workers were always laughing.
PS fave bands The Rubettes and Showaddywaddy.
