the album is quite rare, which isn't surprising if you remember the musical climate in 1977!!

If I promise faithfully to let you have the many albums/photo CDs I've promised in the last (mutter mutter) years, would you mind....?

I was merely suggesting that I may listen to it, that's all...

It would be funny if it wasn't true. A couple of years back I was involved in a hit and run where a bunch of asian youths crashed into my car and then sped away very fast. I got the make, model and reg number of their car and rang 999. The police told me to come in and report the crime, I said "hang on, these youths have just sped off and are obviously un-insured, have stolen the car or are under age or something; plus they are driving dangerously in a damaged car. I thought that you might like to catch them". Result: I get a producer and have to take all my documents in and the police never find the other vehicle. Then they wonder why the public have little faith in them nowadays

TRUE STORY...
some weeks ago a neighbour whose house is directly opposite mine had fallen out with the local yobs, who ended up stopping outside his house and blasting his 4x4 rear window out with one bullet, which he later found inside. the local police came along to investigate, but even though my neighbour KNEW who had done it and gave a description of their car, he didn't actually see them do it, so the police just said never mind, no-one's hurt.......
NOT THIS TIME!!
BTW my neighbour is moving to Cambridge.

Reminds me of a sketch from the Mary Whitehouse Experience. Hugh Dennis reads: "The Police were originally set up by Robert Peel; hence their affectionate nickname: Pig Filth"

England - Garden Shed (Sorry, I can't paste the picture for some reason)
Got it  and it's fantastic. Genesis meets Gentle Giant etc. etc. I think I even heard a hint of America (of Horse with no name fame) in there as well. This is "proper" prog rock; Mellotron, Hammond, 12 string, Leslie Guitar. Iron Maiden kiss my artichoke

Ever since I read Mystic Fred's review of Garden Shed, I've been dying to get it.
It is definitely on my list of new purchases.

Hey guys, if anyone is looking for somewhere to rob with a very low risk of getting caught, please feel free to come and try round here... each evening, we have 1 on duty policeperson covering an area from Hay-On-Wye (17 miles south of here) to Ludlow (30 miles north of here).
What's more, we have a brand new police station in our town, which was opened 5 years ago, but is now only manned by a call box on the wall which gives you an 0870 number for a regional call centre, and I've just heard they are planning on closing it down and selling it off...
In the mean time, Fri & Sat night crime here has doubled locally over the last few months, since the council decided to cut funding to the late night bus service into Hereford, because the drivers were sick of being abused and having to wipe the puke off the bus seats...
does this story sound familiar to anyone elsewhere????

Music has always been a matter of energy to me. On some nights I believe that a car with the needle on empty can run 50 more miles if you have the right music very loud on the radio. Hunter S Thompson
