Oh my god! There's nothing wrong with the bidet is there?
“Nothing discloses real character like the use of power. It is easy for the weak to be gentle. Most people can bear adversity. But if you wish to know what a man really is, give him power. This is the supreme test. It is the glory of Lincoln that, having almost absolute power, he never abused it, except on the side of mercy".
“You see these dictators on their pedestals, surrounded by the bayonets of their soldiers and the truncheons of their police ... yet in their hearts there is unspoken fear. They are afraid of words and thoughts: words spoken abroad, thoughts stirring at home -- all the more powerful because forbidden -- terrify them. A little mouse of thought appears in the room, and even the mightiest potentates are thrown into panic.”
"You don't have free will. You have the appearance of free will.”
“There's a war out there, old friend. A world war. And it's not about who's got the most bullets. It's about who controls the information. What we see and hear, how we work, what we think... it's all about the information!”

Aye, brilliant music & beautifully produced.
Unfortunately for me if I get half-way down the bottle before I get half-way through the album the music loses & I reach for some stability. Thank God Simon Posford wasn't around when I was 20!

Stability..
Aye, enough of the madness.
A long time ago I worked for Hi-Fi Corner in their Falkirk branch. I started out part-time and, because I was still at school, I only worked Saturday's. The first Hi-fi Corner show I worked was in the Royal Scot Hotel, Edinburgh in 1991.
I was assigned to the Ruark room and I wasn't complaining. All the other rooms were playing the usual suspects. Steely Dan, Dire Straits, Pink Floyd. You know the drill. Well this album I'm listening to now had just been released and I'd brought it with me. I think the speakers were Broadswords and they were being driven by - I think - some kind of Luxman hybrid amps. Anyway, I got my chance and put this album on and that room stayed packed for the duration. All sorts of people - old, young, always male (of course) asked what it was. Heads were bobbing, toes were tapping, everyone was astounded! Even the Linn room, with it's makeshift stream (something to do with negative ions, I kid you not) emptied.
One of the best days of my life. I've no recollection of sales for the gear but I can guarantee that album subsequently sold out everywhere..
edit - I apologise for hogging this thread a bit by the way.

The first time I heard this was in a bar on a campsite in Spain many years ago. I'd heard of The Animals of course but I'd never heard this. Find a good copy & the sound quality is as exceptional as the musicianship..
