When I wuz a youngster I was nuts about Bowie.
I had all his albums including this, Images, a double Deram LP of his very early stuff from the Sixties. Like a beefed up and really fab version of rather drab looking The World of David Bowie, which I think was on Decca.
This double had a gatefold sleeve and fantastic little cartoons for each song. Brilliant.
Uncle Arthur was my favourite. He follows Batman! Other lovely tunes included There is a Happy Land, London Boys and Sell Me a Coat.
I adored this record so it still grieves me that I lent it someone along with many others and with the passage of decades and moving countries I never got it back.
That's forty years ago and it would be churlish to go after it now.
One day I may treat myself to another original copy.
Is it one you know?
