holiday


"Ooh you're a holiday,

Every day such a holiday.

Now it's my turn to say,

And I say you're a holiday."


Back when the Bee Gees were a proper band.


Anyway we've been on holiday and I have 345 photos (bows before the great god Digital, in film days that would have cost me about $180 to get developed and printed). This is one of them. A lot more are very similar. It was a very therapeutic holiday.

Hi Phil,

Had a chat with a knowledgeable mate today - he suggested the record might be the Charlie Watts-led Jamming With Edward.

Hi LL

No, it was in fact the Blues Anthology one - I followed your suggestion and looked on Amazon earlier today. The track names looked familiar, altho' I could have sworn that Parchman Farm was on the one I had. Some incredible disparities in the cost of second hand CD versions though - from $18 to $90?? No LP versions available at the moment but as I don't have an operative turntable, that hardly matters. Thanks for the leads.

I commend to you Mr. Tony Martin's
Truly, Madly, Wheatley

$90 is high?
There's a treatise on Ray Davies that is $102

Hi AoD

No, more the disparity in price. These are CDs so presumably little variation in condition (ie either playable, or showing signs of having been eaten by a tiger, therefore not playable).

Tempting but.
