Details Comments

This was one of the formative recordings that sparked my ongoing love of the music. My old cassette tape is unplayable now, but I hope the CCE will digitise these classic recordings and re-release them, 'cause I'd hate the players and their music to ever be forgotten.

Mp3's done

Well I've transferred the tracks to mp3 files on my PC, so if anyone at CCE is interested I'd be happy to send a CD over for their archives ...
