I wonder if they would kick you out if you were already there and then bought the new/carbon fibre?

Take a name, replace any "c" with a "k" or worse, "q"; result is zero cred, won't like you. Same for any other perfectly good letters.

Ick, thanks for letting us know, very sad to hear this. "Canterbury" music still gets played at lot in my house. I wasn't aware that he ran "The Sun Inn" at Faversham, I'll make that a reason to go there when I next vist the UK.

About time someone mentioned this album! I love all the other stuff but this is one that for some reason gets played quite a bit, it is a perfect Sunday afternoon album and the best of the Pye dominated albums. Well said that man. I just wish they'd come visit Australia, I miss them all.

Thanks for the reply, doesn't appear to be much love here for them but I wouldn't mind hearing more. I'll keep an eye out in my local "Dixons" second hand shop.

Having recently bought the DVD "The REAL Spinal Tap" aka "The Ballad of Mott The Hoople" there is a reference to the Winkies. This sparked my interest as I remember the Hypnosis cover. Surprisingly, the album hasn't received a CD release. YouTube suggests this is the type of pub-rock that...

Live Herald is sufficient. I bought the CD version a little while back and it's a good record of when I saw him at the"Venue" in victoria, long since gone.

Having grown up appreciating Yes, I couldn't guess how many times I heard people say "if you like Yes then you must like Genesis". I thought not then and still do. Now, Gabriel solo is a different kettle of tea.

The thread still lives! I totally agree with the Wilko recommendations. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Hyr__kGhUC0

Collectors edition recently issued. Maybe worth a try http://www.801live.com/ and more directly http://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B002BEXF5A/?tag=pinkfishmedia-21

Thank goodness no-one's Photoshopped this one :D

Not "Brucellocis" then? http://www.wordsellinc.com/blog/copywriting/warren-zevon-humor-writing/ [P.S. I just bought the Original Album Series for peanuts]
