Teenage Crushes - Part TwoFreddie Woo writes: I've still got weird feelings for a well-known female TV presenter from the 1980s. I'm now in my forties, work in the same building as her and she follows me on a number of social networking sites. And now, she knows about it.
Tell us about the teenage crushes that still make you go wobbly.

It would beSteve Gray. Although I had all the albums so I admired FM too (the boy sure can play - I learned Gavotte & Variations, by ear as a pre teen keyboard player. Pity I can't still manage such a feat these days ;) ).
I got a warm and fuzzy feeling when I heard recently that Herbie Flowers is still going strong and was touring with Jeff Wayne on the War of the Worlds tour. Not sure what the others are doing now.
I shoulda known there would be people here who knew of whence I spoke. The B3TA class reveals itself once again.
Fav Mike Oldfield album has got to be Five Miles Out. I was totally stunned when I saw the inner of the gatefold sleeve for that lp - with the studio track sheet laying out the arrangement of "the long side". That's exactly how I see music in my head. I'd never seen such a thing from someone else before.
Ah, memories.
