Remember the days of "Albums" - you know, those big 12" vinyl things in a paper bag inside a big cardboard sleeve? The young'uns of today are just rediscovering them (my word the prices have gone up a tad). Often they would include some sleeve notes about the album or even the lyrics to the songs.
Well, just received my order of Songbird from those am azon chaps (that want you to buy £20 of stuff at a time or pay a ransom) and delighted to see a small booklet of "sleeve notes" which includes Johnnie Walker's BeeBeebCeeb interview with C-McVie from January this year printed in full. Worth the entry fee for that alone.
Hell, we used to listen to young Mr. Walker on Radio 1 back in the mid 70's at lunchtime at school on one of them there Jap transistor thingies that were surreptitiously smuggled in beyond the playground Gestapo and the "Little Hitlers" that "smoked" in the big cupboards in the staff room. We know what you were up to.
