An old Liberty/United Artists Records sampler from the early 70's.

99p if I remember rightly.. From the days when sampler LP's at 99p were all I could afford.

Hawkwind, Groundhogs, Amon Duul, Man, If, Canned Heat and many more.

Re Joe 10155 and the Supertramp albums.

That's a band that I only know through the singles and have never listened to their albums. I was out yesterday and whilst listening to Rock FM they played Take The Long Road Home, and I thought to myself what a brilliant song that was and promised myself that I'd give Spotify a whirl to listen to some more. I think both those albums are on there so I'm going to investigate further.

Seen them live a few years back, very good musician's..Love Sunshine Hit Me, not on vinyl though, CD only.

Saw them a few months ago, great tunes, great harmonies, and excellent multi-instrument musicians.

Can't understand why they're not more popular.

Picked this original copy up at a charity shop for 50p, not perfect, but very playable.

Reminds me of the old joke about the record label boss... "You can't sing, you can't play, you can't dance... You'll go far"

DIB,

If you listen to Breakfast In America and you like it you can have my ( well , it's the missus's really) copy of the LP. Because I don't care for it . While I'm at it I can send you all of her Michael Jackson stuff as well !

I'm a bit like you , in that I only know their well known stuff , but I have no urge to explore their music any further . I do like "Dreamer" though .

Changing the subject , I gave Empty Glass a listen . I think I'll have to give it a few more listens before I commit myself to an opinion . I can say that I'm not wild about " Jules and Jim".

Hey Nick,

It would be a funny old world if we all liked the same stuff.

I'll see your Michael Jackson and raise you my wife's Bay City Rollers LP's if you like.

These were a good live band many years ago, might still be. However, I've seen Glenn Tilbrook solo live a couple of times and he's great value, a good time was had by all.

DIB. The other Supertramp album to listen to is " Even in the Quietest Moments"

I could throw my Faust tapes album in the pot.

Faust Tapes ? Now you are really raising the stakes .

I'll have to throw in :

Imagination Body Talk

5 Star Silk and Steel

and Billy Ocean Love Zone .

It looks as if this could get nasty !

I was hoping the 666th reply on this posting would be for Number Of The Beast by Iron Maiden, unfortunately it only mentioned Imagination, Five Star and Billy Ocean.

I can see the devil in their work, but it doesn't quite have the same impact. Shame.

Sorry , BIGBERNARD , I didn't realise what the number of my last reply was , and you're not wrong about seeing the Devil in their work , however, according to Steven Fry , I believe, 666 is not the number of the Beast but 999. And I should know ,

Old Nick !

Terence Trent D'Arby - Introducing the Hardline

.49p? You realise you got yourself a MASSIVE bargain there, mate? More of a bargain than 'Vitalogy'. On the rare occasions i've seen it for sale, it's gone for silly money.

Well done you. You b*****d!

Seriously????

I wasnt even thinking about that.....I was browsing through LP's and saw it......I remembered owning it on casette when it first came out when I must have been something like 14 or 15 and listened to it pretty much constantly.....I just thought it would be a good album form my teenage years to own on Viynl.

I must say its in vitualy mint condition (the viynl is perfect with no marks or scratches and plays fantastically).

Sounds like I got a bargain there then at .49p
