Saint Paul by Kiwi singer Shane
Here is the Margot Robbie version, I was thinking this had been missed when the limited edition CD of Paul McCartney tribute songs, I found out that it was issuesd well after the CD was released and has not been issued on a 45 Single.

The failed 8TB SSD drive was returned to Samsung for repairs, it had a minor problem on its journey back, as the consignment it was in was turned back at Customs, it cleared Customs the next day, I had a message saying it would be delivered late in the day, it turned up at 09.00. The failed unit had been replaced with a new one. I had almost finished downloading the tracks from the original drives 2 x 4TB, 1 x 1TB and a 500GB when the drive failed, the download has been re started the 1TB & 500GB have been downloaded, the 2 x 4TB drives I have found it better to download it in chunks of about 25,000 tracks, even then it can take over 24 hours. I also acquired a 4TB SSD drive at a reasonable price, for use a a general drive.
The 20TB HDD drive also failed, I went into Argos and was told they could not send it back for repairs as it had been posted to me, they could refund me the cost of the unit I took the refund and ordered anew one when I got home, in the 3 weeks since I brought the first one the price had gone up by £109, I was told in my local computer shop that the price of computer memory has sky rocketed due to the demand of it for AI, I noticed that some people were selling 4TB SSD memory for over £1,000.
During the week I had to go to the Pet Shop in Epsom, on the way out someone asked me if I could do a jump start, I said yes and he was most surprised that I had jump leads in the car, my son had battery problems with his car, I had never bothered to take them out of the car after he had the battery changed, when the battery cover was removed I noticed the white fur on the battery clamp and on the positive terminal, and also down the side of the battery, the battery was changed a couple of years ago, at its next service I was informed that the battery was leaking and needed replacing, the lady on the phone was not happy when I told her that it was a new battery fitted at the last service, saying it will be changed under warranty, it is a Varta battery and I hate Varta batteries (they always seem to leak), I used to watch YouTube videos of someone repairing old PC's, the PC's had often been standing around for a number of years and without fail every one that had a Varta battery the battery had leaked, none of the other makes of battery leaked. My car is booked in for the end of the month for a battery check.

Do not Buy or Connect one of these cheap SSD drives to your PC, if you connect one and have other external drives connected the Chinese Cheap SSD drive will kill the other external drives.
A 1969 release, the story I head was that when the Beatles Abbey Road LP was released there was a rumour spreading that Paul McCartney had been killed in a car crash and that a he had been replaced in the band by a ringer, the cover of the Abbey Road LP was the first part of he announcement Paul McCartney has no shoes and the number plates of the cars parked in the road gave the rest of the information. I can not recall where I first came across this track, possibly on a CD of reply/novelty or Beatles related tracks, I did get a limited edition CD that has 2 versions of this song and 2 other Paul McCartney tribute songs, I have since found a third version of this song, I do not know how limited the CD of Paul McCartney songs is as my copy is #66 other copies have been listed and they always seen to be #66.
The consignment returned reminded me of the short time I spent in stores, the returned broken/failed items that were returned to the stores were sorted and returned to the manufactures for refurbishment or repairs one company all items in the box had to be listed, it was routine anything you put in that box was listed on the paperwork, one week the box was returned there was an extra item in the box, the box was unpacked and every item checked with the inventory, it all corresponded, in the bottom of the box was a small screw that had come off one of the other items, because the screw was not on the inventory they rejected the whole consignment, the screw was returned to the item it came from and the consignment was accepted.
This is a custom record released 1965, It is not known how or to whom the record was targeted to, the song relates to the policies of the then President LBJ, and how his policies were affecting the country, sounds familiar.
I first came across this record on WFMU 365 Days Project.
It's the first Hook Road Arena Boot Sale of the year today, there was quite lot of rain on Friday with some more rain on Saturday, the Arena is on clay soil and does not drain well or quickly in previous years when the early Boot Sales went ahead after rain many of the cars had to be towed out of the site.

The new memory hub arrived earlier this week, the 8TB drive is with Samsung for repairs, hopefully it will be back next week or two, I have downloaded over 200,000 tracks from the original drives, two drives was blank, the tacks were over 3 drives.
I have got out one of the boxes of CD's and started loading them on to the PC, a number are on the PC I used to save everything at 192kbps now I save them at 320kbps, the reason I saved them at 192kbps was a long gone site called 'Grumpy's Golden Oldies' often there would be requests, towards the end it became a general request site with people requesting tracks people that had the track would provide it, on Sunday at the Hook Road Boot Sale I found a Procol Harum single, I went to the PC to upload some of the records and there on Grumpy's wants list was the Procol Harum record I had just brought, I started the' Lord Of The Boot Sale' blog shortly before the demise of 'Grumpy's Golden Oldies'. When I stated the blog I was after a title like 'Worlds Worst Records' but that title was already taken, the person running it had a much better collection of that type of record than I did, for a couple of years he had a radio show once a week on WFMU, I think the shows are still in the archive, The Worlds Worst Records Blog was taken down a couple of months ago, I am not sure if it was voluntary or forced there had been no new posts for sometime, the names of closed blogs are released for reuse after 7 years.
To download the CD's I am using an old Samsung free standing CD/DVD drive dating back to the times when PC's only had a CD drive, later they would add a second separate DVD drive and later the drives would be combined.
