..In September. Party But, it had already been recorded by now, in July 1972, so technically it is already 40.

So, in preparation for one of the greatest and most popular prog albums' birthday, are the band doing anything special? Is PA doing anything special? Is anyone doing anything special? Discuss.

Jazz-rock conspiracy? Zappa and Miles played at the same festivals in the
summer of '69 right BEFORE Hot Rats AND Bitches Brew were recorded.

What kind of cake should it be? Ice cream? Confetti? Just make sure there is plenty of green icing.

I got a bottle of some champaign-looking sparkling cocktail with a peach flavor, "Amour de Paris". I'd break that. Big smile

I think the best way to celebrate is to go on living by our getting up and getting down. Everyday I get up and I get down.

One of THE seminal albums of my life, and I play it fairly regularly. I'll never forget watching the sun rise through the dawn mist as I sat on Glastonbury Tor and listened to 'And You And I'. A truly beautiful, magical and mystical experience.
