And for the new lot ... "Trained Without Amphetamines Too"

More Nauseating then Notably ...

Won't be long before some clever clogs uses AI to make this happen , be careful what you wish for ...

Nothing strange about it , he's a greedy b'stad ... one look at his site will confirm that ...

No Sly involvment though these days ... https://thefamilystoneband.com/the-family/

On a PC or phone it's just an OK tune. You really need to hear this in a big dark room , on a big system , at three in the morning .

Synth or organ ... ?

Nice , lots of new to me tunes there to binge on over the holiday ...

Only really familiar with The Stiperstones from Malcolm Saville's "Lone Pine" series along with the Long Mynd.

The thread has FA to do with it , but your 'suggestion' that it'll be armed robbers that'll be the collectors of the future was sailing a bit too close to the wind I felt ...

That's a pretty thoughtless reply given Ted's recent nightmare ...

Same as it's always been , there have always been folk with deeper pockets than the "average Joe" and have got the big ticket items that mere mortals have to dream of owning. The prices might be bigger today but the ratio of loadsamoney to lessmoney probably remains the same.

Thanks to a timely re-issue from @Mark Bicknell to remind me this sublime double sider from '68 is right up there ...

Betty LaVette - "What Condition My Condition Was In"

What an unholy racket ... 🙉

And that would be ........ ?

Same stable but the better 45 in my world ...
