Picked this up last night at Bury. Japanese copy of Human Beinz. Ok it was never really my cup of tea music wise (then again I've just spun it and I was nearly up round the front room!!), but i just loved this piccie cover. All the words on the back in japanese too plus the label looks ace.

Probably loads around but I'd never seen one before

Anyways. That's my excitement for a Saturday lunchtime........

Hope the attachment works, I always seem to manage to balls it up................

Steve I am the worst at remembering lyrics, however this is the last record that I would have thought needed them writing down, I mean no no no no no n no no.....repeat .... nobody can do the (add 50's dance syle) .... repeat .... back to no no no no n no no.

Realistically how long did it take to pen that, it was probably more of a case that they had come up with the tune during a practice session, the vocalist then just put the words or no no no on to see what a voice would add, then left it at that.

But having said that nice sleeve

If ever anyone wants a picture that says "60's" that must come close, great ain't it I love seeing these foreign export discs & sleeves.

It's great when you think about it, at the time these were produced Japan & America, two totaly different cultures, had been at peace for only 20 odd years, after a devestating world war, yet the youth of the countries were finding common ground & sharing music.

The world really did move forward so quickly in the 60's (mainly for the better) something we sometimes tend to forget.
