Still can't believe that 5 shillings is now 25p. That would buy a pint and a half of beer in those days.

Great book by David Hepworth called 1971, where he explains that 71 is the greatest year in musical history. i could not believe how many great albums were released that year.

Janis Joplin. Pearl.
Lrd Zepplin 4
Bridge over troubled water. Simon & Garfunkel
Every Picture tells a story. Rod Stewart.
Blue. Joni Mitchell.
Tapestry. Carol King.
Sticky Fingers. Rolling Stones.
Agree with the blike who said the Hepwirth book was a good read. He was on Danny bakers radio show ( DH,not the poster) when it was released. They were reeling off the albums from that year and its true,cant ever have been a year like it before or since.

Yeah, it was that DB show that made me investigate Hepworth's books.
A very good writer.
