Bob, As a porn starved teenager back in 1968 I always wanted to see the films that the cover pics were taken from, especially the one with the gorgeous girl in the bottom middle picture. BTW what did you pay for it? Hope the condition isn't too bad.

Andy - I never could see the connection between an American Rock Sampler album and the pictures on the cover, but who cared, they were great to look at whilst listening to Taj Mahal, Blood Sweat and Tears and Laura Nyro.

I paid ?9.95 plus pp but it hasn't arrived yet. The condition is supposed to be very good but, to be honest, as long as it plays I don't care. I just want to own it again, and a few scratches will just make it sound like my original.

I now just need to find someone selling a copy of Fill Your Head with Rock - I fear I'm regressing into my teenagedom!

Quite a few Rock Machines on ebay at the moment Bob, and some Fill Your Heads as well.

I still get a lot of pleasure from FYHWR even now. And Age of Atlantic.

I have seen those on Ebay, but I've had a couple of 'unfortunate' experiences on there, so I try and avoid it, but I may just take a chance with this one.

We obviously share tastes, as I' ve still got Age of Atlantic. I just might give it an airing tonight...
