I love this LP. An old friend of mine, when young, he spent a few time in the UK, and I don’t know how he became a van driver of the group. When back to Italy, he brought with him this LP. When I listened I loved it right away! It is years that I’m looking for the songbook, can you help to find it? Thanking you in advance, kind regards Claudio
Very cool story Claudio, thanks for sharing! Are you still in touch with your friend? Perhaps he can share his story with the band!
