I noticed that certain chords sounded more like how I felt, like I was playing something that was personal to me, and that I could relate to. I was looking for something that evoked a sense of yearning, but with a kind of optimism, and that started to develop into an identity of my own that I liked. <br>Bit by bit, these discoveries became my vocabulary on the guitar, and I was sounding more and more like myself.”<br> — <a href="https://neurodifferent.me/tags/JohnnyMarr" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>JohnnyMarr</span></a> <a href="https://neurodifferent.me/tags/SetTheBoyFree" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>SetTheBoyFree</span></a> <a href="https://neurodifferent.me/tags/TheSmiths" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>TheSmiths</span></a></p>

Creative! Queer!! Autistic!!!<p>“The best new band of all for me was <a href="https://neurodifferent.me/tags/TRex" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>TRex</span></a> . Their record JEEPSTER was the first I bought with my own money. I found it in Rumbleo’s, a furniture shop that sold electric lighting and record players that were known as “Stereograms”. </p><p>I’s gone in there because I knew they sold records cheap, and in a box of ex-chart singles, I came across this amazing record. The label had a picture of a guy with a guitar on it. He was standing in the grass with his band mate, and was obviously wearing makeup. I was nine and I’s never seen anyone look like that before. <br> <br>I handed over my ten pence and as I walked home, I kept taking it out of the paper bag to look at it. When I got back home, I raced to the front room, switched on the family record player, and put it on.</p><p>The song kicked off with a drum beat, and then a guitar and handclaps. It sounded like people were playing in some room somewhere, not at all like the other pop songs that were around, with their orchestras and pianos and boy band harmonies. This song sounded odd, more alluring. A bit weird. Then I heard the singer’s voice: “You’re so sweet, You’re so fine…”</p><p>I pictured the enigmatic man on the label, and he sounded like he looked. Within seconds, the record got to the hook: “Girl, I’m just a jeepster for your love”, and hit an unexpected chord change that was strange and moody. 45 seconds into it, I was already planning on playing it again. I was on a journey. Hearing JEEPSTER for the first time wasn’t about hearing a song, it was about discovering a sound. I didn’t care what he was singing about, it just sounded right with the music. The phrase that jumped out was “You’ve got the universe reclining in your hair “, which, to a nine year old, was odd, but striking. Somehow, it all made sense.”<br> — <a href="https://neurodifferent.me/tags/JohnnyMarr" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>JohnnyMarr</span></a> <a href="https://neurodifferent.me/tags/SetTheBoyFree" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>SetTheBoyFree</span></a> <a href="https://neurodifferent.me/tags/TheSmiths" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>TheSmiths</span></a> <a href="https://neurodifferent.me/tags/MarcBolan" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>MarcBolan</span></a></p>

bleep<p><a href="https://ravenation.club/tags/TheSmiths" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>TheSmiths</span></a> aren’t problematic, but Morrissey is. Youtube’s algorithm kept suggesting this video and I relented. I’m glad I watched it because that band defined so much in the 80s. The Smiths were sensational - all that amazing output in just four years! The documentary also reminded me how the North of England and manchester were under <a href="https://ravenation.club/tags/Thatcher" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Thatcher</span></a> and indie music was linked with politics.
