Thanks for the info.

just edited, i think
 they used to edit them all to fit as many groups as possible on the lps
but they were a great way of finding out about groups
 the version of walk awhile on bumpers was slightly edited to make it a few seconds shorter than the full house version

My copy has arrived now and I've listened to it about 4 times; although it didn't immediately make me sit up and think "This is brilliant" as "Full House" did on first hearing, it is definitely beginning to grow on me. And I really love the sleeve notes and things; Simon could have a second career as a writer of humorous articles!

Yes, the autobiography should make for interesting reading! Wink

Anyone know where the inside photos were taken?  (The ones with the statues)

By the side of the A11 just outside Saffron Walden. Archaelogical/old building material recycling yard, still operating last time I drove past.

Shattered dreams !

Have only just come to terms with the news that the iconic photograph on the front of "Who's Next" was taken at a slag heap somewhere in the Midlands - and then find that the inner photos of A.D were taken "just off the A11" !!!

Even " at a picturesque location in the heart of the English countryside" would have maintained the mystique .....................will probably find that the artwork for the Yes albums was nicked from graffiti in an underpass in Brent's Cross...............or worse - the girls on Roxy Music's Country Life were German bricklayers in drag...................aaaaaaaaaaaaargh

Ooops -sorry about the shattered dreams. Would you feel less let down if I corrected myself and declared it WASN'T the A11 but the much more bucolic and countryside-ish B1052?

Getting there........................just use artistic licence and call iit " Fudger's End " or something similarly Ole English & wonderful - the site of startling archeological discoveries...............isn't it a bl**dy good job they didn't use postcodes in the Middle Ages.................just imagine all those wonderful place names simply being referred to as a number - Stonehenge would probably be Wviii xiS or something equally bureacratic.............

Imagination is a wonderful thing... one of my late husband's photographs appeared to be of a vast woodland! I would spend ages staring at it and, for me, it was an enchanted forest. I was disappointed when he finally told me that it was, in fact, a couple of trees and some scrub on a kind of traffic island in the middle of a busy road Sad I found a solution to the realism though Cheesy  I decided to simply believe he was having me on Grin   It worked, I got my enchanted forest back Grin  (well mostly)

And there was I thinking ... possibly Blenheim Palace (a connection with Lord Marlborough). Roll Eyes
