The Strokes – Is This It?
It’s almost like The La’s, it’s a perfect album. I’ve listened to other Strokes albums, and they’re good, but it’s like The Stone Roses and the La’s. They’re in a really high category on their own. As a first album, it’s of such 24-carat purity. It’s unbelievable. For me, it’s one of those albums where you just absorb it for ages and ages. That album that did that to me.
