    Just listened to both of these programmes- many thanks Reuben.

    I managed to pick up a copy of the LP soundtrack in green vinyl recently on a trip to Dublin.

    What innovators they were. They even look well before their time in the photograph! Also bought the metal DVD box set a while back with fabulous artwork on the cover and contents.

    Retro gold.

      I used to have a record collection, then a cd collection.   Now I just get the mp3s, really don't have room for all the accessory   stuff any more.  I downsized to mp3s, it was a lot cheaper than buying a warehouse. LOL  ------  R

      I know what you mean, Rick  but I prefer the physical product with artwork, inserts and ephemera etc. Downloads alone are kind of soulless ; one of the reasons that vinyl has made a comeback with a new generation.

      I love that kind of stuff too.  I usually try to collect the pictures and stuff along with the mp3s, it does help that urge some, but I have a rather large collection and a very small Den/office LOL  -----------  R
