The vinyl had a lovely fold out cover, as I recall. I should never have got rid of it. But I did.

I know. I had a big clear out of old vinyl in the late 1970s in exchange for new. Remember Cob Records adverts in the music papers? Well, I exchanged 30 old for 10 new. Reason being, we had two children by 1979, so I had no money for albums I wanted. Of course, I came to bitterly regret my stupidity and in the CD age, I bought those albums all over again. Good to see that fold out cover again: Curved Air’s Second Album was similar, I’m sure you recall? Funnily enough, the only one of those new albums I’ve kept hold of, is Joe Jackson’s Look Sharp. Such is life.

Folks, our eldest is returning from a school trip to China today and the plane was delayed and it’s likely to be around 9 o’clock when I’m picking him up from the school. Please start without me and I’ll catch you up

Actually ETA is looking like 9.30pm so it'll be the other way round - I'll disappear in about 10 minutes.
Sorry

The first one with John Wetton on bass and I think it shows....
Nice punctuated guitar from Charlie

Wasn’t Wetton on bass throughout? But yeah, great playing.
