I am 41. When I was 16 I used to love this, I had it on VHS and cassette. They were a strange band in retrospect, after King For a Day I tuned out but I still enjoyed watching this tonight. I loved Mr Bungle too!

At 16 my favourite band was John Mayall and the Blues Breakers, with Eric Clapton.

Level 42 - sorry but I'd just started formal bass lessons and they, along with Stanley and Jaco, were my brave new world of bass.

Stiff Little Fingers

[ubit]

AC/DC

[Roland Rock]

Carter USM

[NancyJohnson]

It was Kiss. Don't know whether that makes me feel proud or a little embarrassed.

[Heathy]

When I was 16, Iron Maiden were my world. I don't recall there being any other bands around at that time!

[Lord Sausage]

It was Guns 'n' Roses.

In the last couple of weeks I've started listening to em again....and I f***in love it!

[Srwu]

Hawkwind!

[paul h]

Kiss.

[ColinB]

Quo!

[skidder652003]

Zep!

[Cato]

At sixteen I was just coming out of my metal phase (fave bands were Maiden, Anthrax and Megadeth) and entering my indie phase (Dinosaur Jr, Pixies & Wedding Present).

Although pretty much from 13 onwards when asked I've always given my favourite band as The Ramones.

[CamdenRob]

Emperor...

... of Norwegian black metal fame

[EliasMooseblaster]

I'm fairly sure that by that age it was The Who. Little has changed since.

[Cyrene]

At 16, in 1987, I was obsessed with Roxy Music's early stuff. Everything from their debut to Siren.

[4stringslow]

Ah, 16.

Tubular Bells was probably the big thing for me back then, but I'd also just discovered Caravan, Barclay James Harvest, Capability Brown and Wishbone Ash. Was also buying a fair bit of reggae vinyl back then, mostly on the wonderful Trojan label, which was something of a fashion anomaly as I had very long hair at the time when reggae was popularly associated with skinheads. Oh those confusing teenage years

[neilp]

Zeppelin, Whitesnake(!)

[MoonBassAlpha]

Isotope. I used to play the faster tracks to psyche myself up for taking my gcse ( o-levels, as was) exams.

[keeponehandloose]

Motorhead

Are you me?

Well perhaps not because my absolute fave was Budgie, but close enough

[Musicman20]

NOFX. I still go to their gigs now and keep up to date with their releases.
