It was Nursery Cryme.
Had it running on the Sondek a couple of weeks ago while messing around with a third-party āblueā belt (from one of the other Hifi forums).
Amazing SQ for two ounces of plastic which is half a century old!

āNo, thanks! I donāt need to give you my email address to get an e-receipt simply because Iāve bought a microfibre cloth to clean something (Halfords)ā.
āWe notice you havenāt given us your email address.ā, āYes, andā¦?ā.
āWould you like a printed receipt, sir/mate/pal/boss?ā, āYes please, Iāve just spent Ā£200 including some nice bottles of wine and steaks and your ātagsā always set off the bloody security alarms as I leave the shop for some inexplicable reason!ā (Itās not just larger shops, I like printed receipts simply because I have no proof of purchase otherwise if challenged).

My originals are scratched to bits from the Ferguson music centre we had at home at the time, but I still have them alongside some heavyweight re-releases of the same albums. Where I feel old is that I still love that music after all these years.

Many things makes me feel that I Am getting old.
Listening to music from the 80ās and remembering the times that I loved those on the radio.
My kids talking with me like I was Santa when they want something. Or simply tel that I Am old to understand or like RAP.
When I Am the only one that pays all the bils during the month.
No more CD Players on the market.
I still have a deck and there is no cassetes on the house or available to buy, and my kids look at it and think is electronic archeology.
No one uses a minidisc, diskman, Walkman on the go.
Arcade houses are a thing of the past.
The pain on my back when I have to move my amplifier or speakers.
This and much more makes me feel old.

I had a Ferguson record player and AM/FM stereo system in my bedroom in the 80ās - so many LPs skipped that I resorted to BluTak and a sixpence on the headshell - still gobsmacked that so many are still pretty playable on the LP12 though my current cartridge is poor for surface noise.
Leaning around the back of the system as you plug it all in, trying to remember how it all hooks up, hoping you donāt end up with a slipped disc or frozen shoulderā¦
