It's been very enjoyable 👍 (sorry for the delay; been on me hols) It certainly took me down some nostalgic roads. It's actually made me appreciate how lucky I've been to have had the privilege of listening to 5 or 6 decades of popular music, the likes of which will probably never be repeated. Well over half a century of cultural innovation. When you're younger, you tend to take music for granted (let's face it, you take everything for granted  ). It's a large part of your life. Well, it was a large part of mine anyway. I guess it still is. But we're all different. Glad you took it on, quodec . Now go and enjoy your retirement  I'll end my contributions with this. From a gig I was at. It was also the first song played at me & Mrs Mortified's wedding. None of your soulful ballads for these two  It certainly raised an eyebrow or two. Hope you had a good one, Mr E.

Mrs Mortified was dressed as Big Bird and I plumped for Bert. There was a resemblance anyway There were no kids there. Probably just as well. Quite scary
