The first song I remember hearing
I’m from six generations of classical musicians, so my dad often played Adagio of Spartacus and Phrygia from the ballet Spartacus by Aram Khachaturian. For pop, it was House of the Rising Sun by the Animals. My home was a right old mix!
The first single I bought
When I was 12, I taught piano to other children and some adults – I had seven pupils. My treat was to buy a top from TopShop or a record from HMV in Great Yarmouth, where I bought Love Shack by the B-52’s.
