7" Singles - A
Listening to all my singles. A to Z.
Starting, fittingly, with the single I've owned for the longest: Abba's Chiquitita.
I was clearly very proud of my early records, so wrote my name on the sleeve. God knows why I then thoght it would be a good idea to scribble it out!

One thing I've noticed - I don't have as many ABC 7" singles as I expected. Having said that, I still love this Be Near Me double 7" package.

After an enjoyable 3 year journey throght my albums a while back, I've decided to start my 7" singles odyssey. Listen to them all, sides A and B and, where relevant, any second (or more) discs. It makes sense to do this in alphabetical order, but there will no doubt be some exceptions - Christmas singles will obviously be played in December and there's a box sets which I might play at different times.
There's over 900 of them, so I may be a while. Here we go...
