If not it must be near it. I think it's the oldest post I've seen on here.

From 13 months earlier:
https://www.theanswerbank.co.uk/Music/article/surf-for-supranos/
and
https://www.theanswerbank.co.uk/Music/article/trying-to-ape-the-monkees/

Interestingly (for boring nerds, like me), those articles were posted to AB's server well before there were ever any questions posted to the site. The first question, posted by ATOB2 (who was, no doubt, one of the people involved in setting up the site who was simply aiming to fill up some otherwise empty space) was this one:

On that ATOB2 question there were 5 removed answers!

Spam I expect

Thanks Chris. Didn't take you long to prove me wrong:-)

The removed answers may have been a timely reaction to the predicted forward-slash shortages, flagged up by scientists the year before and part of a great recycling project which, alas fell by the wayside as overuse boomed.
