“Rockalain” of France sent this one in. Thanks Alain — this is sick.

“I’m glad to propose this funny LP cover of a 1970’s UK Rock & Roll Band “The Rock ‘n’ Roll Allstars”. Their attempt at a Red China tour was a disaster. The Chinese were not ready to hear this kind of music in the Seventies. The story goes that they played just one show before they were asked to leave the country. Maybe they were the first rock and roll band to play in China? A Thousand “Thanks” and congratulations for your magical and fabulous site !!!!!!”
