When I first discovered SP

I first heard 1979, Tonight, Tonight, and Bullet with Butterfly Wings back in 1996, on a mixtape my sister had recorded over time from the radio. Back when songs lasted more than a few weeks in our consciousness. I was ten, and we were on our way to the UK from South Africa for a family holiday. No three songs had ever struck me so hard, and shortly afterwards I bought the MCIS double CD album. The rest is history; SP defined my music taste throughout my teenage years, and I’m still a big fan now in my mid thirties. MCIS is where it all started.
