Is dave going to exhort us all to gamble on it?

Yep, and now we're up to $10 a pop-didn't he used to say $2?

Ah, 1975.

Well, technically Mshray's was first, but I don't think you can delete a thread that's been responded to (or maybe that's up to the moderator...oh wait, that's me...)

VHM George... who apparently has been communicating with Macca from beyond the grave. Writing songs together, they are.  Yeesh.

Why not John? I'll tell you why- John would probably tell him to "get stuffed".

Whatever you need to do to promote yer new album, Sir Paul. Me? I'll be buying Ringo's new disc, thankyouverymuch. You remember HIM, right? Kinda ugly, the only other surviving Beatle.... am I ringing a bell here?

segue JINX!

Wasn't there a book they used to advertise in the back pages of Playboy and Rolling Stone called "How to Pick Up Pieces"?

"Strange Magic"  -- that was '76, no? Unless Face the Music came out in Dec of '75.

I can't imagine you in big bells now! :lol:
I used to have platforms and the goal was to have the big bells cover the shoes. It was a groovy outfit.

I BOS'ed it via phone & Dave says it was intentional.  I said I always dig on his segues & he said well thanks for noticing.  I then asked him if next time we hit '76 he could play "Shake Some Action" by the Flamin' Groovies, which (true story) has become my 5-yr old son Adrian's favorite song from the tape I made of last year's "SF Rock from the 70's" set.
