As well as books, there were shelves of antique vinyl records in their silly oversize cardboard jackets. I picked up a thick boxed set. On the front was an overhead shot of a huge crowd filling an enormous green space between skyscrapers. At the corners were circular photos of four middle-aged men. I giggled at their funny hairstyles. Printed across the top of the box was "THE REUNION. CENTRAL PARK. SEPTEMBER 6, 1983." The cover opened out, like a book, but the liner notes weren’t much help. “Greatest event in the history of rock and roll. The Fab Four come together again!” Yeah, right. Must be someone's idea of a joke... |
