Notes

  1. Rafferty's 1969 & 1970 Humblebums recordings – plus one 1971 solo track.
gollark: You could also probably use the file explorer thing as admin or adjust the permissions somehow?
gollark: My phone's (nonreplaceable) battery has degraded to the point that I'm seriously considering replacing it. But it seems that there are now basically no good options to replace it *with*. What joy.
gollark: Alternatively, the Moon.
gollark: Just scoop up all the sand from a big desert and dump it there. Nothing could go wrong.
gollark: I thought they'd said something about it being too dangerous. Wonder what changed.
