It's always nice to hear the really bold ones coming around for another go.
It's always a strange sadness/relief when they stop.

And then you start to get fond of that one and then...
He's gone!

It is over.
That was an absolutely lovely record filled with beautiful tunes, beautiful playing and some of the best vocals you'll ever hear. It could have done with some more Rocky stuff and a bit more variety but was still well worth the listen and deserves future listening, as well.
Now to look back at the thread and see what everybody else made of it.

I just listened to the title track and 'taped' it with Audacity, cos I always wanted a copy of it for my collection.
