    My girlfriend mentioned a compilation album she used to have called Precious. Apparently it featured the likes of Suede and possibly Pulp.
    Been scouring google & ebay trying to track down a copy for her as a present.
    Anyone ever heard of it? Would be eternally grateful to anybody who could point me in the direction of a tracklist for me to download from itunes.
    Thanks in advance

    Thanks Copacetic. That's definitely going to get me off the hook next time I'm in trouble.

    Loved that compilation. It was on the jukebox downstairs in the International Bar; I still remember the Suede song was number 0505 :)

    Yep, best compilation album I ever bought (and it was in the bargain bin in Golden Discs in Stillorgan). I still have the inlay for the cassette but I threw out the rest. Magic.

    Oh man this brings back memories. It was the first indie album I bought, and I listened to it continually (on cassette). Always thought side A was better than side B. And The Shamen track felt out of place, too "dance" as opposed to "pop indie". I've found a picture of the album cover here (http://bit.ly/noJo8e). And I remember inside it said "Remember that a puppy if for life, not just for Christmas" or something to that effect.

    That is a sweet-looking compilation. I already have about half the songs on it but there's a few artists there that I've been meaning to check out e.g. Daisy Chainsaw, The Sugarcubes and Inspiral Carpets.

    This was the big Sugarcubes track I remember. Note the very 90's 'rap' section in the middle.
