This was actually released in 1983 on the album, Speaking in Tongues.


Love(d) both of the entries! I have the Talking Heads album, and wish I had an Atari... :(

Ah, right you are! That's what I get for trying to rely on memory ... or lack thereof! :laugh:

Richard Boone stars as the black clad good guy Paladin, a modern day detective working in the old west. In this 60s television western he lived in San Francisco and his services did not come cheap. His standard fee was $1000. He was a West Point graduate and could recite Shakespeare as well as use his colt single action revolver. If you remember he had a calling card he handed out during each episode.

I remember it taking days to enter a program and then when the tape drives came out the fights in the stores to get one... I was bruised and scratched but after camping in front of Hills for 5 hrs til they opened with about 300 other people... I did get one. It was mostly women and I was one of the taller people there :) I think the store only had 100 units and they were gone in the first 15 min of opening. Then it was just days at times to install from tapes :) Yes.. I remember punch cards and huge floppies too

Cloud Nine is George Harrison's eleventh studio album, recorded and released in 1987 after a five-year hiatus from his recording career. Including the hit single "Got My Mind Set on You", Cloud Nine re-established Harrison as a critically acclaimed and commercially significant recording artist. It is the last studio album released during his lifetime.
