BOOOO-OOOOO Pt 2!
The real history of the rock and roll years -- the 1960s (from a Scottish newspaper):
"1965
APRIL 1965 Bert Jansch records his first album using a reel-to-reel tape machine and a borrowed guitar. He sells the recordings to the Transatlantic label for GBP 100. The album goes on to become one of the most influential guitar albums ever."
(And Bertie never saw another penny from that record, most especially not the publishing royalties because of the way the contract was written and later interpreted in a lower court of English law. Booo-oooo-oooo! Boooo-ooooo! Hoooo-ooot! Mon!)
