John Paul Jones drew inspiration from "Oh Well (Part 1)" when composing the riff for "Black Dog".[14]

It is over.

That was a fabby collection of songs we'd never have been able to do if we'd only ever stuck to doing albums.

Now to look back at the thread and see what everybody else made of it. Excited

Oh, I thought it was going to go back to the main riff again. Probably couldn't fit it on a 7" of the time.

The other playlist at 7:25?

by **The Call of the Wendigo** Wed May 17, 2023 7:20 pm

I shall give it 5 stars.

American entrepreneur Milton Reynolds came across a Birome ballpoint pen during a business trip to Buenos Aires, Argentina.[1][10] Recognizing commercial potential, he purchased several ballpoint samples, returned to the United States, and founded the Reynolds International Pen Company. Reynolds bypassed the Birome patent with sufficient design alterations to obtain an American patent, beating Eversharp and other competitors to introduce the pen to the US market.[1][10] Debuting at Gimbels department store in New York City on 29 October 1945,[10] for US$12.50 each (1945 US dollar value, about $188 in 2021 dollars),[10] "Reynolds Rocket" became the first commercially successful ballpoint pen.

How could it be the first commercially successful ballpoint pen, when he'd already bought some, from shops?

The biro was invented by Laszlo Biro in the '30s didn't he?

Hence the name biro.

EDIT - Yes...
