Separately and collectively, like FOOD or not, all the members of that group played the 60s American musical game at a perfect time to play it, obviously played it better than 98% of the groups during that era, got out before they lost anything or they had to go to rehab, did it all in one take and then 'POOF' they were gone. The old Chicago 'hit and run'. The groups writers spoke of love, death, suicide, end time prophecy and the deceit of 60's society ( What it seems to be). I guess that all got to them. I have heard the expression 'better to be a has been than a never was' many times when FOOD has come into a conversation at a convention.

The title tune FOREVER IS A DREAM has been released recently along with the Steve Miller band and the Beach boys in AH FEEL LIKE AHCID, a copulation of 24 tunes picked by the 'biggies' of the industry to represent the 'Summer of Love' and the grandfathers of 'Psych'.

The album FOREVER IS A DREAM has increased in value nearly at the same rate as gold. An original issue, now over 200 USD, is a rare collectable. The limited re-issues on Vinyl and CD have increased steadily in rarity and value.

Theories of the group from groupies and 'wannabes', who were not there with the group, are rampant. Little to no information was found or could be verified on the other members, however......
After FOOD, Ashford and White, sometimes from two different locations worked on such films as THE THREE WARRIORS, HINKEY AND BOGGS, THE BABY SITTER, SCUBA, THE DARING DOBERMANS to name a few and with groups Big Brother and the Holding Company, the Pointers Sisters, Country Joe and the Fish, the Grateful Dead. Ashford, as he did before FOOD, continued working in the Film and Recording industry. White moved on to work on films with Directors Jack Starrett, Herschell Gordon Lewis and Tom Vollmann. He acted in JUST FOR THE HELL OF IT, BLOOD LUST/ADDICTED TO MURDER, SHE DEVILS ON WHEELS, ALIEN AGENDA/UNDER THE SKIN, ALLEY TRAMP and BLAST OFF GIRLS where he also wrote and performed the opening tune BAD DAY.

All members are presumed dead.

Value of old Vinyl LPs of Nelson Riddle and his Orchestra
I have just unearthed a little-played LP of Nelson Riddle entitled The Best of Nelson Riddle
It is still available second hand as an LP but I have noticed that modern CD versions don't seem to include the track "Drive In" which was on the A side. It's not much of a tune and sounds a bit like a novelty track but I do remember a Radio phone-in competition here in the UK many years ago set the "Name this mystery tune" feature using that track and nobody could identify it.

My question here is has this LP got any rarity value? Is there much demand for an out of print old catalogue item formerly on World Record Club label? The copy I have has been very little used in the 40+ years I've had the LP. It has even more rarity about it, since the label has a sticker saying Factory Sample Not For Sale. I have that because I used to work for a large record company who distributed World Record Club and pressed them as well. We were given free samples on the sales force and I have kept this one all these years because I really liked Nelson Riddle's arrangements.

I have seen a mono version of this LP for sale for around 12 uk pounds so I am not expecting the Stereo copy to be worth much more. Does anyone know differently and am I sitting on a valuable piece of kit?
Thanks

Lillo Thomas' new CD: "Come And Get It"
This is a very good CD to have in one's collection. But, Lillo Thomas has a new CD on the charts. It's inundated with feel-good mid-tempos such as "What's Not To Love?" and heart-felt ballads such as "Come And Get It". This CD shows us that Lillo still has it. On this CD, Lillo hired the Brooklyn song-writing team Larry Jefferson and Allen Copeland. I feel songs by these guys made the CD fresh and contemporary. Also, Lillo re-teamed with producer Paul Laurence. This CD is a true winner. If I had to rate it, I would give it 5 stars out of 5.

This one is so very nearly perfect; whilst it has not been used there are some tiny creases to the lower right bottom edgewhich professional mounting and framing would render near invisible.
