Came across your blog a couple of weeks ago, and am enjoying what i've read so far. can't remember how i got here, but think the ABC borrowed title drew me in.<br />second the sentiment of the great dolby write-up. i hadn't realised the albums had been re-released. i was lucky enough to get a demo version of wireless back in 1981, and it was interesting to see you mention Sale of the Century as i've been hoping that might eventually resurface. The only other difference on the demo was a track called Ghost Train, which has sadly disappeared without trace. i'll be popping by regularly - keep up the good work! cheers, dave.Davenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2558055401220732192.post-49260742312301764842009-07-28T09:24:42.543-04:002009-07-28T09:24:42.543-04:00@ Lazlo - Thanks for the heads up.
