Churz, dude. I'd spied it hanging up on the wall, thinking that it might be quite good, but left it. Then later on Chris said that it was excellent and something that you would rate, so I shnaffled it...Originally Posted by Rare Bird
Fooking £35, though, but the dude gave me £5 off, for cash! He then mentioned something about one of the members of the band dying recently?

I thought about it.....and then I thought about it again.........but even for 30 quid, lovely package that it is, I thought I'd better stick with my CD of it!
Most importantly though Marco, do you like it?
