What?! Is this the CD- or the vinyl-version (with the bonus 12")? Hrmmm, who cares - looks like it's also time for me to scavenge 'round the 2-hand shops and pick up some copies (last time I saw 'em these at places, they go for approx. £3-£4 over here). Unreal... :-? "eBay, here I come...!...

Oh, just for the record - I forgot to add whilst slating off Dixons that Denon has a CD-recorder component which could do the trick (DENON CDR-W1500)! And the same thing does Sony (Sony RCDW500C); I also believe that Marantz and NAD also have similar products out there... The line "Jeezzz, what...

Hi Steve! Jeezzz, what a bunch of dorks at Dixons! If it's any comfort, they're just as lame over here in Denmark (however with the odd exceptions, mind)! Anyway, since I don't own a (qualified) tape-deck anymore (haven't owned one for years), I'm afraid that I can't help you here! :-? But... Don't ...

Point noted Nick & Mark! And to support your postings, I found this (part of an) article, where Kevin Gore from Rhino Records gets interviewed about compilations (planked off of http://www.cnn.com/2005/SHOWBIZ/Music/08/18/music.greatesthits.ap/): "...At the end of the day, there's a larger ...

Hi Pete (and the rest of ya)! Good question, actually! But it's probably only Warner's marketing department that can truly answer on that one! Personally, (and eventhough I'm a big fan of NO) I think it's utterly pointless! Of course, unless you're a complete newbie or completist... :wink: Then I'd ...

Congrats Henry!!!
You truly are a lucky guy!!!
