One lunchtime in 1993 I came home from work at lunchtime to check the post and have some lunch. I was living in a flat in King's Lynn which was cheap and a bit of a dive truth be told... but it was cheap and only three minutes walk from school - in fact I could see it out of one of the windows...
Waiting for me was the new Rush album. I couldn't resist putting it into my CD player - I had a nice separates system with vinyls, but with the odd new CD appearing. It started really quietly and then '1, 2, 3, 4, 1, 2....' then the drums pounded out of the speakers.
Here's the 2004 remaster of that opening track from the album 'Counterparts': 'Animate' - it remains one of my favourite openings of any Rush album.
Also that year, Bjork made her 'Debut',
And Big Country were no longer in Kansas.
Sarah McLachlan released 'Fumbling towards Ecstasy'. I have a separate post about this album which will be appearing in a few days' time as it was one that I listened to a great deal....
What are your favourite albums from 1993?
