And there's the tune "Lucky Man" by ELP.

He had white horses
And ladies by the score
All dressed in satin
And waiting by the door

Oooh, what a lucky man he was

White lace and feathers
They made up his bed
A gold covered mattress
On which he was laid

Oooh, what a lucky man he was

He went to fight wars
For his country and his king
Of his honour and his glory
The people would sing

Oooh, what a lucky man he was

A bullet had found him
His blood ran as he cried
No money could save him
So he laid down and he died

Oooh, what a lucky man he was

I managed to amass a bit over 400 from 1967 to 1975, (then I  
focused on LPs). I don't recall too many coloured ones, but  
those, in good condition could fetch a good price.  The ones  
with "photo" sleeves are also decent collectible prices; I  
might just have about 20 of those.
