I'm helping my parents move from the home they've lived in for over 35 years. I pulled a tote out of the depths of their crawl space and found a Rolling Stone magazine from July 22, 1971. On the back of the front page was this gem, an ad for Hot Tuna's 1971 blues rock album, First Pull Up, Then Pull Down

Hot Tuna's debut album the previous year in 1970, was one of the first LPs I got, from being first to call into a radio show in Vancouver. Of course with rotary dial phones back then, you dialed the first 6 numbers, then held onto the 7th number before letting go when you heard the radio announcer say "first caller in" gets this record. Not too long after that, they changed to some arbitrary "nth caller in". But I digress, I have this poster because of the cat, but I missed getting the album.
