I love Brilliant Disguise. Got the 45. Will check my special Brooce box to see if I have Tunnel of Love on CD!

Quite a collection Matt! Definitely a singer I can keep going back to. I remember liking a couple of tracks from Lucky Town/Human Touch when they came out but I'd have to look them up! I sold my Tunnel of Love a while back, concluding it was inessential but that was probably a stupid decision

I need a proper sleeve for my Asbury Park - and a copy of Nebraska!
comment in response to post
I always go for the best copy I can get Phil but there are times I bend the rules and pick up a record with a tired sleeve - as long as the vinyl looks ok
comment in response to post
Your records are always so pristine Phil!

Never seen it before! Found it at Oxfam's superstore out by the Mini factory, along with a CD copy of Rain, Tree, Crow, an obscure Fairport album, and a beautiful Artur Rubinstein Brahms/Schumann boxset on RCA Red Seal👍

I really liked You're Not The Girl You Think You Are. Think that was CD only release?

Got both these somewhere! I think my brother gave me the Tasmin a while back

There's an antiques centre contained within the garden centre. Within the antiques centre there's a dealer with some very good stock!
comment in response to post
Saw a reasonably priced Odessa reissue in a garden centre recently along with a whole load of Bee Gees LPs. Will be going back!
