well .. what a lot of varied feedback :-)
i had a quiet afternoon at work yesterday so i took the plunge and decided
to give the album a quick onceover - and i have to say i was really taken
back as to how much i enjoyed it .. some of the tracks are full of life and
great melodies ..
time heals bad memories ..
and i agree entirely with pauls comments .. so all in all a damn fine
bargain !!
now i just need to find a cd copy of Nutty Boys in the same bargain bin and
my life will be complete ..
for the record - i used to see a few relatively cheap cd copies round leeds
a couple of years ago and never bloody got it !! arrgghhh, the days of
student budgets ..
my quest continues ..
ta ra !
