Please, will people cite the lyrics they quote. I'm guessing it might be ELP but I don't know.".....Sidney chose a switchblade and Benny got a cold meat pie.

Sorry Barry - yes, ELP, from Brain Salad Surgery - Benny the Bouncer.

Not bad from memory, I dug the CD out after I posted and enjoyed Benny the Bouncer all over again...
continues...
" Sidney grabbed an 'atchet and "buried it" in benny's 'ead,
The people gasped as he bled, THE END OF A TED!
Well, they dragged him from the wreckage of the Palais in bits
They tried to stick together all the bits that would fit.
But "some" of him was missing and "part of" him arrived too late
So now he works for jesus as the bouncer at St Peter's gate (ah)"
Brilliant album, loads of inner-mixing going on and, back on topic, you'll need a pretty decent arm and cartridge combination to really do it justice on LP. A shame that Hadcocks go for such silly money bearing in mind their "tool-shed" build in the early days.
The Grace 707 is still a good arm for well sorted cartridges as long as the bearings don't rattle (misuse by over zealous Linn dealers...) and the hideously over-priced low capacitance exit cables can be reasonably replaced by a US made cable advertised on eBay for £45 or so...
