here it is:

on old old kula website (it was 1998!!!)

there was a section where ev'ry member of the band made a list of his 10 favourite albums and books...

who remembers that lists?

i've got few memories of them, but thanks to that lists i've discovered love' forever changes (crispian n. 1 choice!), belle and sebastian' if you're feeling sinister (paul's choice)...

let's try to remember that lists about musical an literary suggestions of our favourite band!!!

Ciao!

I think it might have benn home.online.no/~jhvalby

I know for sure they had a lists section...

the bad news is, the site is offline it aseems

To say that's a question for true fans is bullshit. I for one knew NO ONE who had the internet in 1998. We only had it in school in 1999.

wow crispian's no.1 album was forever changes??!!!! thats awesome....see everyone should discover the genius of love before its too late.

p.s forever changes is my favourite album ever

you're right!

in 1998 i was in internet points only to see ks' site!!!

In 1998 there were no public internet points in Cardiff.

For those who missed out, you can recreate the whole experience of it being 1996 all over again thanks to the lovely people at archive.org

I've just been trotting through that, how cool!

hehehe

hehe, i just bought that exact book last week!

K

You bought it? The Hare Krsnas gave it to me! Along with a hundred million other books!

I had one given to me too!

I think I have all the books. Jasmine would be proud!

For 1996 that website is pretty cool. That would've been around the time my house got the internet. Would've taken ~3 hours to load that site though.

I concure with Bethy, remembering some random list of some albums and books from a band website is no test of being a true fan.
