Dear Geoff

I find it almost impossible to choose 10 of the best recordings ever produced. The ten already listed are among my favourites but I would put Bohemian Rhapsody by Queen in a much higher position, say 3 and would add Gene Pitney's Half Heaven, Half Hearthache next to it, at number 2. I just adore Half Heaven and always stop what I am doing to listen and dream a little. The Bohemian Rhapsody is just so clever, cheeky and fun.

Thanks for the opportunity to have my say.
