1990 :- snap, paradox, together, urban hype, the source etc

but 1991 was great :- quite close behind. future sound of london, prodigy, human resource etc

also 1993 was when i started going out again :- mother, helicopter, d-ream etc

But second to 1990 for me was 1994 :- loveland, bros in rhythm, judy cheeks. lots of girls in fur bikini's etc. Mark moore and oakey on top form. LOVED IT!

Whilst not wishing to be a pedant, doves first appeared arse end of 90.

90 was deffo the best year for me. People still had the bollox to break into Warehouses, it was when you first got a long period of total consistency (biscuits, new yorkers and of course the aforementioned dove amongst others). More importantly it was when the piano turely became king.

deffo 89 for me

[Myk]

I voted 89 (although to be more exact it would be late 89 early 90, Konspiracy, Thunderdome. Strawberries, Ohms and Smilies) an all just coz it was the year my eyes were really opened , nothing then came close untill late 92 to summer 93, for some reason I had a blinding almost none-stop 8 months party in that period. Still 89 takes the biscuit

[lastnightadj]

C'mon people - we can do better than 28 - get voting!!!

I really want to see those fingers working

[Bobleeno]

91 deffo got me going. Likes of Dennis the menaces and doves. The years before we were into A Cid, strawbs in the warehouse in Leeds, and it was in Monroes that told me i was takin the wrong thing! In 91 the choones got me well hooked and i just couldnt stay out of Lancs, cos the folk in there were well more into parties. Then it all blended into a big mashed up haze in 92.

Its a toughy between these years, but gonna say 91.

Voted 89. I'll never forget walking into the Hac for the first time and gawping at all the nutters. I was a changed person overnight. Oh for one more night on them podiums

Can I vote for 90 and 91 too...Mr Dove, I salute you
