A nother pretty typical variation on the theme for late spring, summer, and very early fall. I'm a huge fan of Madras and have several such shirts in the seasonal rotation. Lightweight, exceedingly comfortable, and even dressy when pressed and tucked in, which is the usual way of things here at Totleigh in the Wold. Now, if I had my druthers, I'd still rather be skiing the trails in the upper half of "The Mitten" (of Michigan), in the Upper Peninsula, or Ontario. But summers ain't so bad either, and I'd look pretty funny walking around in cross-country ski attire during June. -- Heinz-Ulrich
Magic - I haven't seen these remastered versions! A feature of these old live versions of other people's tunes (Ritchie Barratt's in this case?) is that they frequently get the lyrics slightly wrong - partly, I think, because they gradually evolved through performance, but also because they couldn't quite make out the original version on the little Dansette gramophones of the day, so they were starting with a potentially illogical story line! Man, that short-scale Rickenbacker is REALLY small!
