The August Album Challenge: 30. Back To School Album

Been so long since I was at school so the choice today harks back to one of the great bands that me and many other kids were excited about when we got chatting about music and listening to the charts on a Tuesday Lunchtime on a transistor radio in the playground hoping out favourite band might even get to number one...My Friend Stan and Everyday peaked at #2 and #3 but inbetween those releases was the  #1 single Merry Xmas Everybody!
