@tftimemachine.bsky.social Interesting to hear your take on the BBC’s Decimal Day and also a relief that I’m not the only one baffled by the halcyon days of ‘old money’. It took nearly an hour to work out the price of The White Album (workings attached)

From Whole Scene Going - the groovy ‘60s version of Nozin’ Aroun’ “Cut to Barry Fantoni. CUT TO FANTONI!”

An extraordinary achievement. Memory Almost Full level compositions - every one of the 14 songs (a nod to The Fabs!) is fascinating. I can hear so many moments from Macca’s career seeded in every song. Faves so far: Never Know, As You Lie There & Momma Gets By. But they’re all fab Extraordinary!
