Thanks Barge, very clear. As more of a fan of later 10cc stuff, I’d been looking forward to this. Think I’ll save my pennies.

Yikes! I already have most of these in 4 or 5 formats. Original vinyl still sounds best so far…

Cheers Dave – a great immersive review! How much is the box?

No. I’ve seen that movie already and it doesn’t have a good ending.

It wanted me to sign in or something, so here’s another article, which may or may not say the same thing:

Nice one chiz. I remain unmoved by NP, but you’ve got me scouring the small ads looking at Sierra Ghias. Fond memories…

There’s a YouTube video of it you might like Twang.

The only poetry I can recall from memory is a bit of Hardy’s Darkling Thrush and the opening lines to TS Eliot’s Love Song for J Alfred Prufrock, something […]

Yes, it’s in my Amazon wishlist – looking forward to reading the reviews.

Ha! Fair point. Maybe that’s why Lewis got the brush-off.

Looks just the ticket. Just ordered – thanks!
