Trivia
On a side note, the sleeve of this album was one of the very first to include an email address. It was the address of Gerry Rafferty's management at the time. It also included a telex number.
gollark: Make it `print "you are silly do not use the typo version"` whenever you use it.
gollark: "Deprecate" does NOT mean "remove immediately", like the CC wiki implies.
gollark: You can *never* delete potatOS, and never should.
gollark: We should delete dan200.
gollark: PotatOS is moving to `git`. Very slowly.
