First love, eh? 'Music was my first love,' as an old song has it, 'And it'll be my last.' But that's not what this is about, really, is it? Let's go with The Ramones (they were going to turn up some time, in one or another form, of course), where they made it on to <cite>Top of the Pops</cite>. Maybe because Phil Spector was at the controls, though we'd have to hope not.
