What happened to punk changing everything?

It's a bloody hippy song.

You'll be telling me they did a Paul and Barry Ryan number next.:tongue:

And did it well..... but not as good as Arthur's

From forever changes....One of my top five all time fav albums

One of mine as well. It was a victim of the old flat mate nicking your stuff trick in '71. Hugh Figges must still be looking over his shoulder.

Maybe the people would be the times.... or between Clark and Hilldale....nobody covered that!!

I have some outrageously good memories of tenements in Glasgow with that album playing. It was a long time ago. The Maryhill gang are all 9 years older than me..... our lives have changed a lot but we'rall still here and all of us have that album.

The greatest fun ·ments in Glasgow with that album playing. It was a long time ago.

"We're all normal and we want our freedom!"

I remember a review of this album saying it was amazing to find an album quoting The Marat/Sade!

"Yeah
I heard a funny thing
Somebody said to me

You know that I could be in love with almost everyone
I think that people are
The greatest fun"

" Me And Bobby McGee " by Janis Joplin takes some beating as a cover version.

Did you ever go to Carr's Kegg? I was the singer with the house band.

maybe not the best, but certainly the creepiest version of this blues classic. I came across it whilst learning it.

It starts of ok, but then you see this ominous writing in the top left corner. Then kaboom! Does she know what she's doing?

Sandy Denny wrote it, and sang it when she was in the strawbs. It appeared on Fairport Conventions Unhalfbricking album when she joined them think I knew that but I couldn't resist.

Now you're just being picky!;) Happy New Year Tongs!
