major_clangerSometimes an image will hit you with very place and time-specific memories.
I always think of my time as an occasional presenter on Imperial College Radio in the late 1980s when I see this. In part it's because we had a primitive LP catalogue on a VT220 terminal that looked quite a lot like this, but also because 'Telegraph Road' was a very useful track for the isolated presenter. If you were presenting on your own late in the evening, and nature called, it was a safe bet that you could be back well in time to cue up the next track.
So, what other bits of memory-triggering album art are there?
