What was the last album from your past that you downloaded out of morbid curiosity and actually discovered to be quite good?

"[f]rom your past" implies it's one I've heard before, then re-discovered thanks to downloading. Is this right?

Yes

Okay then, the most recent of these would be the Sisters of Mercy's First and Last and Always. I'd just started high school when Floodland came out, and it sounded huge and brilliant to my young ears. I borrowed FaLaA from a friend and didn't dig it at all...

No, I don't think it's bad at all (even though it still *sounds* like crap).

I feel the Carter revival seriously bubbling under right about now.

Anyway, for me it was probably Pulp's "His N Hers" or the Show & AG one whose title I can't remember.

I'd love to find The Firm (they of "Star Trekkin") album on slsk, as that's the first record I ever owned.

I think it's time to bite the bullet and put some Carter on PopNose.

Thompson Twins' "Here's To Future Days".

I kind of recall them having lost it by then. But they certainly hadn't.
