caddymanI bought this as a double LP when I was 17 and although it was a compilation, it was one of my all-time favourites.
It is a great regret to me that it was simply deleted when CDs came along (although I believe it was available for a short time on tape cassette).
If I wanted to, I could recreate the album myself from other sources, but without the gatefold sleeve and accompanying booklet. It wouldn't be the same.
I regret too, having got rid of the LP along with the bulk of my vinyl.

Wouldn't it?

I couldn't face starting again from scratch so left it. When I saw USB decks I wondered if that might be the solution to easily copying them. We have enough old stuff that we'd like to be able to listen to and make compilations from, but not quite enough to buy again on CD (assuming it's even possible for all of them).

If it's not silly money, buy it and get it copied on to a medium you can listen to it on, bet you won't regret it.
