  1. Funny the date of you posting because I was just thinking today "whatever happened to...?" listening to T Rex and remembering buying this down the corner shop. I used to save the David Cassidy posters to give to my 7 year old girl friends!

  2. AH!! the golden age of bubble gum, glitter/glam rock. When , despite the dire financial situation and the 3 day week we hadn't forgotten how to have fun!!
    To read mags like Popswop, Music Star & It's here and now, To listen to the Sweet, T.rex, Slade, Wizzard and Mud or watch them on T.O.T.P. To pull on your flares, tank top and platforms and dream long hot summers and owning that Mk.1 Ford Capri.....!! THOSE WERE THE DAYS!!!
