I always used to tell people that I bought 'Going Underground' by The Jam and the 1980 reissue of 'Paranoid' by Black Sabbath at the same time as my debut 7 inch purchases. I thought it painted me as a genre-busting iconoclast straddling diverse musical styles with ease.
In fact, a while earlier (I thought it was a few weeks but after checking it actually charted some months previously in 1979 so it might have been then) I had firmly planted my marker in the territory of cool by buying this.
Yes, yes, I know - "We've done this before!" but I felt the need to confess.
