Mr. Thomas is listed on the cover of the vinyl album, but not included on the LP. Only 7 tracks on side A and 7 on side B.

I’d just like to say I adore how the art for this is an old school j-card.

I’d just like to say i obtained a copy of this exact tape with the exact same cover, back in the late 80s or early 90s!!!!
Looks like a Camden Market special to me!

Sorry folks – cover art made no mention but i found an extra info file and seems to be the same original torrent with same transfer details
again Mr Thomas is missing – I tried to check my own original tape transfer but i can’t locate it. Song title sounds familiar though so maybe it was on there

Shame really, just dawned on me that this post/torrent has caught me out twice now!
To think that what i originally thought was an upgrade was just another copy of the same nth gen commercial boot tape i had bought myself all those years ago!
somebody somewhere must have a copy of this seemingly impossibly rare slab of vinyl
This is great. I as always enjoy compilations like this. Thank you.
