interpol52 Posted August 25, 2016 Share Posted August 25, 2016 (edited) I am 41. When I was 16 I used to love this, I had it on VHS and cassette. They were a strange band in retrospect, after King For a Day I tuned out but I still enjoyed watching this tonight. I loved Mr Bungle too!

chris_b Posted August 26, 2016 Share Posted August 26, 2016 At 16 my favourite band was John Mayall and the Blues Breakers, with Eric Clapton. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kiwi Posted August 26, 2016 Share Posted August 26, 2016 Level 42 - sorry but I'd just started formal bass lessons and they, along with Stanley and Jaco, were my brave new world of bass. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heathy Posted August 26, 2016 Share Posted August 26, 2016 When I was 16, Iron Maiden were my world. I don't recall there being any other bands around at that time! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cato Posted August 26, 2016 Share Posted August 26, 2016 At sixteen I was just coming out of my metal phase (fave bands were Maiden, Anthrax and Megadeth) and entering my indie phase (Dinosaur Jr, Pixies & Wedding Present). Although pretty much from 13 onwards when asked I've always given my favourite band as The Ramones. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EliasMooseblaster Posted August 26, 2016 Share Posted August 26, 2016 I'm fairly sure that by that age it was The Who. Little has changed since. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cyrene Posted August 26, 2016 Share Posted August 26, 2016 At 16, in 1987, I was obsessed with Roxy Music's early stuff. Everything from their debut to Siren. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
4stringslow Posted August 26, 2016 Share Posted August 26, 2016 Ah, 16. Tubular Bells was probably the big thing for me back then, but I'd also just discovered Caravan, Barclay James Harvest, Capability Brown and Wishbone Ash. Was also buying a fair bit of reggae vinyl back then, mostly on the wonderful Trojan label, which was something of a fashion anomaly as I had very long hair at the time when reggae was popularly associated with skinheads. Oh those confusing teenage years Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
