 Taking it into perspective, £7.50 was quite a bit of money back in 1975. I was unemployed in 1975 and I think the unemployment benefit rate was about £20 or £25 per week. That was also bolstered with Supplementary Benefit if you were married with children + Child Benefit. Petrol was about 85p per gallon but with the oil crisis petrol was no longer sold in gallons but in litres. I got a job in 1976 that paid (as far as I remember) about £65 per month, and being married + 2 kids + running a house and car, it wasn't easy.

 Full page column ad now uploaded which says it was a limited edition of 30,000 and priced at just £7.50! Amazing value for a 4LP box set.

 Released at roughly the same time was a paperback book with the history of modern folk music by Dave Laing. Title was: The Electric Muse: The Story of Folk into Rock. Published by Methuen Paperbacks.

 Rambling Jack Elliott is given (in error) as Jack Elliot throughout. I blame his first issued LP which had this misspelling on the cover.

 As someone who tries 2 add albums, singles, 78s and such, I can appreciate this degree of effort also!! This is an impressive amount of work!! I only wish I had the skillz 2 add those green headings/divisions and I don't even know how 2 insert those hyperlinks like RecordDragon does!! So yeah Quad5point1, keep up the good, detailed work!!

 My goodness 7 years, not very hopeful for me, it takes me forever to get the simplest amount of info on an item get the pics right, rechecking info, not lazying out on filling all info I have in hand, scanning, editing etc.. even with little experience so far. Only a few days back I figured that if I place my phone on square picture eases up my editing work on the LP cover coming out straight. But no fake praise here, I was utterly impressed with your hard work. Wonderful.
