"Bitter Sweet Symphony' is an absolutely gorgeous song. I love 'Sonnet'. 'The Drugs Don't Work' is a beautiful, beautiful song, as is 'Lucky Man'. I love the whole album – it has some classics on it. The production is amazing, it doesn't try too hard to hit you over the head. It's got these beautiful soft layers underneath Richard Ashcroft's singing and I think a lot of that is from Nick McCabe, who adds all these layers with his guitar playing. The album is beautiful and to me it sounds like it'll stand the test of time."

"She’s a classically avant garde, experimental composer who was part of the 70s New York scene that people like Julius Eastman and Arthur Russell were also a part of. Her album Pipe Dreams, which was given to me recently when I was living on my own in the Lake District, became a soundtrack to the moments where I embraced the solitude of living somewhere quite secluded by myself. It has these beautiful drone sounds that interact with bass, and it adapts to your mood in a way. It’s completely transportive – an album to lose yourself in."

"The album cover was worth the price of the purchase on its own. It was a highly influential record for me. I can remember being at a still life class in art school [Hornsey College of Art] listening to this. I learned every lyric on it. ‘In Every Dream Home A Heartache' is Ferry at his best. They were really hitting their stride here. Their attention to detail on the artwork was amazing. As I said, the album covers were as exciting as the records. To this day, there's a bar set when it comes to presentation, and Ferry set it."

"Already their second studio album, they had scored hit singles with 'Denis Denis' (I first heard that on my Grandad's window cleaning round) and the sublime 'I'm Always Touched By Your (Presence Dear)', still one of my favourites to this very day. As a whole album, it sounds like a spy movie soundtrack with 'Contact In Red Square' and 'Kidnapper'. Highlights for me include 'I'm On E' and 'Love At The Pier'. The very definition of late 70s New York pop art and punk glamour; Deborah Harry, for me, will remain forever the Queen of New Wave."
