Nicodemus chose Freda Payne and Band of Gold for that Friday feeling . This reminded me of when, at a wedding reception the dj played this as his first number of the night ! . So can anyone else remember being in a position where they wondered about the choice of music ?

Your trying to sell your abode , so which three songs do you have on in the background ( along with the smell of fresh baked bread ) in order to interest buyers ?

Having just listened to Adrian Sudbury on Radio 5 Live , I was wondering about songs where the lyrics are about the songwriters own dying and I am really struggling .

Having racked my brain , the infamous Seasons in the Sun by Terry Jacks is all that came to mind,maybe the subject is a " hard sell " in pop but I hope others can enlighten me .

This may be as inflammable as an old mans fart however I have never been that bothered by guitars .

My 10 year old niece , correctly , chose drums for her birthday . I could stop being strange uncle and provide advice , some equipment and warn her of impending scorn .

My 12 year old nephew then produced his guitar AC/DC stool and told me about his lessons . J then mentioned tracks he had never heard and then I understood having a dad who was more likely to have synth based 80's was not going to help .

So my question is this

Given he is new to the guitar , apart from teaching him to respect drummers , what should I record for him and why, in order to give him a decent knowledge base ?
