Not me, I will never admit it, the CSA will chase me for the rest of my time on this damned earth. Discuss it with your mother.

Now Diccus I am starting to worry about you. Posting pictures of men dressed in Pink Bikinis and someone on a record cover who looks very how would I put it- effeminate.

You must be frequently some really dodgy web sites.

Is there something I should know or your wife and kids should know? Does a closet have something to do with it?

Shure do to a degree, the Naim forum. Howevever the really kinky part of the forum I rarely visit in case the wife checks my viewing history 'Hi fi Corner'. The last time I was there I ended up buying big wires and fancy fuse boxes. Roll Eyes

Hi Diccus,
I take it, it was worth it?

The Jefferson Airplane's Bark came in a brown dustbin bag with a set of instructions of things I might want to do with the bag - all in little rhyming couplets. I still have the bag, lyric sheet, instructions and album. Whilst not their best elpee, it is not the worst either.

The cover I admire the most is this one -

There are better things I could have spent that sort of money on Winker

There were so many changes to my kit and to the house at the time I had the wiring done, I really haven't a clue. I think if I eventually get a TT back up I may notice some difference. It certainly doesn't sound worse. Maybe if I took the wooden floor up I think it would be better, but hey it sounds good enough to me. As for upgrading, I'll leave that to others and buy loads of music. You were a massive help at the time. cheers

Regards

Same here, it must be one of the thinnest bits of vinyl around

Does the inner sleeve of Grace Under Pressure count along with Yousuf Karshs band portrait for the same album.

555-

Brilliant album/artwork!

Was that not the inside of the gatefold? And if so, does this not automatically, if not technically, disqualify your entry?

I always loved the fact Hendrix used this Fillini-esque photo for his album artwork. I think it gave an added element of danger to the music.

Was that album an import? Not available in the U.S.? Also, was/is it (the artwork) ever produced/available as cd. The copy I have does not have it . . .. such a shame.

Nope it was definitely the outside - although I seem to recall a story that WH Smiths insisted on wrapping it with a brown paper bag when it was 1st released Smile

Max, if you like the artwork so much, why not buy a vinyl copy off e-bay?
