"Journey of the Sorcerer" pops up on iTunes.
..and it's 28 years ago, I'm standing in the Art Room at Fairkytes in Hornchurch, building scenery with a couple of new friends I've known about two weeks. I can smell the size on the canvas, the paint, the fabric softener Andy's mum uses. Andy has just introduced me to the Hitchhiker's Guide, and I'm entranced.
Now, in 2008, this brings tears. Quite why it does, I'm unsure - but it happens almost every time the tune plays, and with the same images and memories. I suppose the moment does mark a first step into a larger world, in its way. There is much that's happened in my life that I can trace back to those Sunday mornings all that time ago.
I might play it again in a minute.
