The European tagline for Peter Weir's "Gallipoli" was 'From A Place You've Never Heard Of, A Story You'll Never Forget". Not a suitable tagline for Australians and New Zealanders of course.

Ooh..the USS Gerald R Ford is heading for the Gulf. Let's hope it doesn't fall down the steps when it gets there.

This might not be the best LP ever made but how can you not like a band called Dali Caldis And His Brazil Nuts ??

You've got to admit - D and the Girls look capable of starting a pretty spectacular party. Let's go ladies!

Is it just me or does the Ring of Happiness look like a big yellow mouth full of white shiny teeth? Anyway, it's an ellipse.

I don't know what she's listening to on her Philips 'Fiesta of Sound' stereogram but whatever it is, it's certainly getting her excited.

If the three wise men really did say ''We three Kings of Orient are" (as it says in the song), that would be the equivalent of this chap introducing herself as "I one King of Britain am", which, frankly, would make him sound a little too much like Yoda for comfort.

There are only two places where superglue actually works;

Chess set, hand made present from my wife, who spent months making it. Everything's musical. The pawns are side drums, rooks are juke boxes, knights are congas, bishops are semi quavers and the king and queen are treble and bass clefs.

That's probably the most beautifully romantic thing I've ever read. I'm getting all misty eyed just thinking about it ❀️❀️

I saw this in 1963 when I was 7. The spectral riders out on the moors scared the bejeezus out of me.

A favourite! Also features another excellent supporting role from Milton Reid, well known at the time on TV as Diego in 'Sir Francis Drake'. Underrated, but his unique look gave him great screen presence.

From 1967, 'Seekers Seen In Green' is their most mature and reflective album featuring some of their finest original material. This original stereo pressing came in a gatefold sleeve with a spacy psychedelic cover shot by Robert Whitaker.

Past sense of 'fit' is 'fit' or 'fitted', which is a clumsy word. As the past tense of 'sit' is 'sat', the past tense of 'fit' should be 'fat'.

"I did four years secondary school but I never fat"

1978. "Sounds" newspaper reviews our new single and tells the world to forget the Buzzcocks and go with us instead....the world, however, chose to ignore this sage advice πŸ˜€

The Five Man Electrical Band had a song called with the same name but it was a different song.

No...I know Ted Mulry had a song called "Julia" - was that it?

Another scarce EP, four tracks from Liverpool's finest, on the old style green Parlophone label, before the implementation of the more familiar black/yellow label.

"Reelin' and Rockin' - a scarce 1960 4 track EP from Chuck Berry. "EP" stood for "Extended Play" - basically a 45 but with four tracks instead of two.
