Got the following reply this morning so you folks were pretty close. I have now poured a half pint into my computer. Share it around!

It was actually "I am the walrus" which was the "B" side to the No.1 "Hello goodbye" and also featured on the "Magical Mystery Tour" double E.P. which was at No.2.

He has now hit me with these;
Who had an LP released in 1972 called "The Dark Side of the Moon" - a year before Pink Floyd's landmark album of the same name?

The first few bars of "Taurus" by Spirit (from the album "Spirit") were pinched to provide the first few bars of which bona fide rock classic?

Billy Bragg's "A New England" has the opening lines "I was 22 years old when I wrote this song,I'm 22 now but I won't be for long" - borrowed from the opening lines from "Leaves that are green" from whose 1960's album? Because the original song's composer didn't mind, charges were not pressed!

What was the first Various Artists LP to top the British LP charts (not counting shows or film soundtracks) ?

The "Spirit" one is Led Zeps "Stairway to Heaven" and the Billy Bragg one is Simon & Garfunkel but I'm stuck on the other two.

After this I promise not to lean on you any more!

Murray! After being seperated from the Lowden for about 10 years, I now have it back and am very happy with it!
