The lady in front is Diana Coupland, who enjoyed a long career as a television and film actress. Diana started her career in the 1940s as a singer, and she dubbed the singing voices of actresses who could not sing - she was the playback singer for Ursula Andress’ “Underneath the Mango Tree” in Dr No. The question is: WHO is on the bike with Diana?
2/2 #Harris and the #Democrats were never going to fix this. At best, they would have slowed #Americas decline. Why? Because #neoliberal #capitalism eats itself. #Liberals are Neoliberals. It is a right-wing position, just a kinder, gentler capitalist philosophy (lol). And that’s why they would never fix what needs fixed. That’s why, even when the Dems were in power, they did very little to correct an unsustainable direction. America hasn’t had a real #leftwing movement since #FDR. The malaise of the #1970s should have been an indicator things weren’t working. Instead, the #US kicked the can down the road with #Reagan, and then #Clinton.

1/2 • Из дневника Энди Уорхола:
Мы с Ронни поссорились. Он расстроился, когда я сказал, что не хотел, чтобы он резал и натягивал «Серпы и молоты» так же, как он это делал, пока меня не было, а он возразил, что — как же так — он, получается, всю работу проделал зря? [...] Я ему сказал, что никогда не знаю, чего хочу, пока не увижу то, чего не хочу, и тут он заметил: ну, это другое дело, если я «отталкиваюсь от такой позиции»... #citations #prints #Warhol #artstars #1970s
It says "bigger, same price" on the wrapper rather than the "higher price but smaller" of today. #UK #news #1970s #nostalgia #confectionery

These “Radio Broadcast” pressings are always very hit or miss, & even though these Peel Sessions as well as clips from their appearance on Something Else have appeared on countless other bootlegs, this one sounded pretty good when I tested it at the store.
Not bad for 15 bucks from a used bin.
