Colin Gets A Reprive

When putting this together, inadvertently swapped Colin's solo album release dates. Didn't come out here until Feb 72, just outside our time zone. The UK release had a nice texured cover.

However, Colin has been here since before the beginning and has earned enough tenure to stay!
