Top class Brit AOR. I got the original copy on LP when it came out and then the CD. Will definitely be getting this upgrade with all the extras. Some quality stuff coming out of the Melodic Records camp at present, so big kudos to Andrew

Thanks bud! Just to clarify - MRC or MelodicRock Classics is the label for these reissues (and more to come). I no longer own MelodicRock Records.

Ohhh. Is that why the MRR releases are no longer on the Spotifies? I couldn't find Secret anymore.

Yeah, more or less. That's why I've re-done Jimmy Davis - to get him back on digital as well. The whole MRR/digital set up was a nightmare with the first half of the catalogue administered by Cargo UK and I still don't know what is what with those titles and no communication with Cargo.

That's why on MRC I do everything myself...full control!

My mistake  Keep the good stuff coming our way

I hope they have these available through a US distributor.  The shipping from Australia is killer.  I’m sure they are feeling the same when they purchase stuff from the US.  It’s a shame when shipping costs more than the damn cd.

Uh, actually, Andrew is very reasonable with his shipping rates.

Buy it direct from me and the shipping is in the price - normally works out to USD10 for the customer, but most of the time USD15 for me in costs.
