As I sit here, pondering over this post, I can but think that I have done
something correct after so long LOL. As you visualise yourself stood
amongst the hippies and other sundry forms of life, clutching your bottle
of red barrel and a tub of neopolitan ice cream, complete with little two
ended plastic spoon, you may say to yourself. "I wonder if this poster
ever sang with great gusto these very musical masterpieces standing in
this very circular example of victorian splendour?" You may rest assured
that he did many decades ago. Apart from which it is a pleasure to know
that this wonder of modern instrumental production is appreciated.
Mercury.
