Still got an original vinyl of that from 1965. The mono version which sounds far better than the remixed stereo versions of the tracks. If I had a fire in the house it would be a toss up what I went back in for first, that album or our lass.
Used to know Robert Palmer to talk to long before he became really well known. Was pleased to see years later in an article in a magazine when he was asked what his favourite song was he said this.

Soul voice at it's best, brings back so many memories of my youth.

As does this. “The Weekend Starts here!”. Remember watching this. What a great time to be 16. The day after this was broadcast we lost at Millwall then had 3 home games in 8 days, scoring 13 goals and conceding 2, watched by over 90,000, the last of the 3 games over 35,000 a figure not beaten since for a league game and unlikely to be be beaten ever.
If someone builds a time machine wouldn’t mind going back to September 1966 to relive it.

Did the ocean
Very good
Did the bull ring
Amazing both of them
And did the Van Gogh exhibition

Can’t fault it
Thanks for the recommendation
You're welcome
Personally prefer Valencia to Barcelona
And if you want somewhereposh to stay within a short train ride look up hosteria Mont Sant..heaven
 
Turin or Milan? One choice
Advice needed
If you want to do the touristy bit head to Milan and take in Lake Como (30 mins on train from Milan).
If you want to take in some footie, still enjoy the culture and enjoy being off the tourist map then go to Turin.
Two great cities, you'll enjoy either. Personally it would be Turin for me

Never done Milan but visited Turin two years ago - the old town is easily the most beautiful place I've ever visited. Was there for two days, one night as part of a motorbike tour, it wasn't nearly long enough. The area around the Royal Palace is simply stunning.

No mention of how good the brothels are or how fat the birds are
This place is going down hill
