When did you buy your first Stina album?

Post by RobB »

Long forgotten the exact date but I bought my first Stina album,'And She Closed Her Eyes' in the summer of 1994. :)

I bought all of them (bar TWIS) in a very short space of time in late 2002 when I was completely besotted with her music.
I still am,but there's nothing to buy. :(

I bought my first one, This Is, at the time of release, then got all the others shortly after. Same time I discovered this bunch of weirdos at the Barbieboard ... :wink:

We were all quite sane until you came along and kept going on about Stina's boots.

late 1994, ASCHE. On cassette, 8.99 from the Grosvenor Centre in Northampton, two days after I left home and the day before I was due to start college. With the change from a tenner I got a second hand copy of Rain Dogs from the flea market.

It was raining. My first day in a strange town, 300 miles from home and didn't know anybody at all.

OOH THE SIGNIFICANCE

Lazily of me, I brought her first record online as an import on Amazon in 2004. Quite late compared to the rest of you.

I got it on Amazon because it was impossible to find it her music in UK stores at the time.

However, I was stunned yesterday when I saw all of her albums in a small store in Convent Garden. I can't remember the name of the store but it wasn recently brought by HMV.

It seems like the word of her music is getting out in small doses.

"And when she didn't seem
to listen at all
He said I'm getting wet
You held your part
Of the deal"

I accidently recorded a song by Stina from the radio on a tape in 1994. The songs was lost when I recorded other songs on the same tape. In 1996 (or perhaps 1995) I saw an album by Stina in a cd-shop. I recognized the name but didn't remember where from. After listening to the album I recognized Murder in Mairyland Park. I bought the album then and there.

Later on I bought Memories of A Colour and Dynamite. The other albums I all bought shortly after being released.
