I'm always on the lookout for new music that I haven't heard before and came across this lot this afternoon. If you like a bit of funky soul/jazz it might just brighten up your afternoon. #82

Correct, Martin. 'The Magic Christian' starred Peter Sellers and Ringo Starr and, IIRC, 'Come and get it' was written by Paul McCartney As for the Carpenters, sorry but I hated them #86

As for Bad Finger, I remember their singles and that they were brought under the wing of the Beatles to a certain extent and, if I recall correctly, they were signed up to the Apple label. #87

"Without You" was written by two of them. Somehow, I have ended up listening to this brilliant (and previously featured) covers band again, this is perfect...

Nearly there now and getting ready to repaint the interiors to represent rust.
