Cheers If you get it....it is a mystery box after all! Ahhh.. this is the problem with the ability to hit the button on yer phone once you are well into a bottle of red. Hadn’t quite dawned on me that it was a mystery. Oh well... look forward to receiving The Wombles ‘The bebop years’ or something. Lol |

It’s a bit disconcerting when PayPal tell you £30 odd has gone and you have no idea what is going on. Ahhh.. some vague memory.  |

looks like you all got reasonable haul for the money.
But surely everyone already has a copy of that Dexter Gordon LP?

I'll be giving it a run through tomorrow. Got a bit stuck on Ella And Louis. One of the best recorded vocals I've heard on Vocal....by best I mean "my favourite" |
