The last great musical decade in my opinion and before Simon Cowell and co trashed the UK music industry .My first choice is Zombie by The Cranberries live at Woodstock in 1994 .The late great Doleres O'Riordan of which there aren't enough superlatives to describe this woman's unique voice and left us way too soon .https://youtu.be/Fa0x3c42pXw
I'm just 46. Left comp in summer of 92 at 16. Went to a few raves myself, despite being mainly into Indie / Metal. Altern 8 were awesome though. Anyone remember the BYO on North Bridge?

My theory has always been that most people remember the music of their teenage years most fondly.The reason being, you didn’t have (or don’t remember having) many cares in the world and certainly no gas bills to worry about.I wasn’t interested in music till punk (I was 15 in 77) and at that time I was only interested in girls, Rovers and beer and punk.I used to have 2 paper rounds in the morning and 2 at teatime. Then I’d go to the local butchers and clean his shop for 2 hours every night. These jobs paid me £10 a week!!This used to fund my obsessions, along with the odd fiver my mum would slip me, behind my disapproving father’s back. With beer at 30p a pint and gigs costing £3 or less, you can imagine the tangles I ended up in lol.
The 90s was good but the 60s was better. IMHO.Maybe it’s an age thing.
