As they were intended to, at least... Was that 'Oldies but Goldies' you had? That was the first Beatles (or any) LP I bought - Woolies in Twickenham - probably about 1973 (I nearly typed 1873 there....) <br /><br />Being resolutely uncool even back then, it was a choice between that and Revolver. 'Oldies but G' was £2.29 and had 16 tracks, 'Revolver' was £2.50 and had 14... I did the math. I do the same thing with that as you, start singing the next song etc - plus, it has 'Bad Boy' which is one of the best ever Beatles covers and still sounds fab on disc.<br /><br />Tory, Tory, Tory....<br /><br />[Sighs and rubs hands disgustingly up and down thighs in Vic Reeves fashion whilst almost passing out at thought of having acquired a *third* reader....]<br /><br />You are far too kind. As some of my older readers will tell you, I myself did a pretty average and embarrassing Deborah Harry impersonation up until fairly recently... But, you'll be pleased to note that I've given up the old platinum blond wigs and bin-liner dresses and will be going back to my much-lamented solo rendition of 'While my Guitar Gently Weeps'....now, where did I leave that ukulele??<br /><br />;)<br /><br />Speak soon and l.u.v. on you all<br /><br />xxx<br />MortMorton Shadowhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02929701101737032709noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1186331300032714815.post-50188143162767920322009-09-07T20:51:04.939-07:002009-09-07T20:51:04.939-07:00Howdy do, I just surfed in.
