Tone,

And what a fantastic album it is too

It is that, mate, and worth every one of the 72 pence I paid for it in Brixton Woolworth's around 1971 (as were the other Stax albums they had in abundance, among them Darrell Banks' 'Here To Stay', "Boy Meets Girl" and pretty much everything else that had come out during EMI's Stax era apart from Isaac Hayes, Booker T. and Eddie Floyd. Still, who wanted those when you could get the Staple Singers' "We'll Get Over", Delaney and Bonnie's "Home" or "Rare Stamps" in the same week and still have enough money from your 8 and a half quid take home pay to buy beer, go to footie, give your nan her housekeeping money and even afford not to bunk your fares at Plaistow Station a couple of days a week?

Will reply to your PM sometime this week, I promise!
