I could round up a couple of friends round here who'd remember 'em, too - it's been a couple of years since I played the lp - it actually got airplay here in mid-Michigan in the year or 2 after it was released.

Five, at least - two of my old friends also know. One of them ordered 
the album from the US in the late 1960's - I bought it from him later, IIRC.
One of the track has the line: "You're not tired of talking/ but you 
don't know what to say..."
Good one to quote at times.
Take care.
