Music question...

Does anyone here remember an album that was put out by a British group (or possibly single artist, but I think group) some time between about 1968 and 1971 (at the latest) that began with a deep-voiced man asking "Are you sitting comfortably? Then we'll begin"? This memory of mine has been driving me crazy as I listen to all Moody Blues albums in that period, Chad and Jeremy, and similar groups that may have started with that (I was so sure it was going to be Cabbages and Kings, but no), hoping to find the album. IMPORTANTLY: I do not mean the Moody Blues *song* called "Are you sitting comfortably." I do not mean an old British radio program that started with that phrase. And it is that exact phrase, not one paraphrasing it, which can be found on a Humble Pie album (or was it the Faces?). If anyone knows what album it was, let me know!

CKD

This seems to be a pretty inactive group, but I have to ask if anyone else has CKD? I was recently diagnosed, have found a renal/diabetic dietitian to help me with what I can eat (after a week, i am REALLY hungry since I'm afraid to eat anything), our first telehealth session is tomorrow afternoon. I am gobsmacked by how much conflicting and contradictory dietary information is on the web. Eat ABC, avoid ABC. DEF is beneficiary to kidneys, DEF further damages kidneys. It's incredible and useless. Anyway, wondering if anyone here has coped with this.

Really glad to be in my 70's--the future is going to be rough for the folks who are young now.
