[fryalot]

the chances of anything coming from Mars are a million to one
they say

but still they come

[TheArmadillo]

I used to have that on record.

It is fab.

[mawbroon]

Oh yes. I loved that too. i listened to it fairly recently for the first time in yonks and completely surprised myself by remembering pretty much all of it!!

[Marina]

SEA, ask him to get you some Alan Parsons Project too

[southeastastra]

[GeoffWode]

[southeastastra]

its a great song. i like the david essex one.

[wooga]

My parents used to play it in the car when I was young and I'd imagine aliens chasing us!

[MaureenMLove]

We listen to it every year, on the 500 mile trip into the Highlands of Scotland. There's something amazing about listening to parts of it going across Rannoch Moor just as dawn begins to break.

[SaintGeorge]

I love that album.

Had it on vinyl, with the gatefold sleeve and fantastic booklet of artwork, but it was ruined in the floods.

DH got me a replacement cd but somehow it just isn't quite the same.

[southeastastra]

i had the lp too, one of the pics is scarily like the twin towers

[TheArmadillo]

I remember my record cover had pictures on of all the 'stars' performing.

I particularly remember 'rising young star' David Essex, as he was about 50 when I got hold of it and staging his comeback.
