No worries, as there seems to be a dearth of 2013 vinyl vintage on the market, you could assume that you're sitting on a goldmine. Of course this release could even could add extra value as this episode of red draws attention to those pesky hard to get black ones $$$$$$$$

Sorry - no idea, I couldn't find any on sale (affordable or not)!

I've ordered too. This is very welcome as I've been playing the BY Rhino on CD recently and been investigating whether I could find an affordable version of the 2013 vinyl edition. I couldn't!

At last - a credible explanation for the removal of Radio Radio - even though it's not on 'my' LP.

Sulky - of course agree about The Picket. As to the "Two worst things EC has ever done: 1) not following his father's football team, 2) North I understand that there will only be widespread acceptance of my first choice. However for me that entire album should have stayed within their 'own four...

...It seems churlish to complain about getting these wonderful shows,... . Sorry but that's 'cos it is churlish. I'm certain that without Muriel's input into and support of the project there wouldn't be ANY of these wonderful shows. We are supremely privileged that they share these '21st century ho...

Thanks for pointing us to that lovely performance of a great song. " Let her go, let her go, God bless her. " is borrowed from the blues classic "St James Infirmary". At his epic performance with Allen's band at the Picket in 2007, EC dedicated this song to a great Liverpool born...

John Prine must have passed be by completely as I have not heard much by him - any recommendations to start with? Hi M Glad you're ok. If Jardine's offer falls a tad short of the full John Prine Experience, here's a link to a tribute in Rolling Stone with youtubes to illustrate, as they say "t...

Hi everyone Yes, all healthy on the Balcony too, but it's a strain. Having been retired for 2.5 years I have already got used to not going to work. My wife's job has been suspended pending 'normality' resuming. But our daughter works in a local hospital and so her risk of infection is a constant wor...
