Reply to TIL that due to The Beatles retiring from live performances in 1966, some of their most iconic albums, including Sgt Pepper and the White Album, were never played live by New_Blacksmith_115

A Dutch tribute band called the analogues plays these studio albums live. Check them out on YouTube. Unbelievable.

Reply to This satellite photo shows development in the Northeast. The one dark spot in CT-MA is a National Heritage Corridor (The Last Green Valley). Pristine woodlands, clear clean rivers. Half the size of the Grand Canyon; 85% undeveloped. Learn more on Amazing Tales CT: https://AmazingTalesCT.Podbean.com by CTHistory42

The Last Green Valley AND the Connecticut River Valley create this large protected open space region between Nyorkton (the megapolis of New York and Boston). Many folks, working with many organizations, continue this effort. Please support your local land trusts!
