Just found the website and I have to say I’ve enjoyed finding so many 80′s extended versions! The Greg Kihn Band “Jeopardy” 12″ is one I’ve been wanting to hear for a long time. Thank you for your work on digitizing all of these great tracks. One problem though: the Fixx’s “Secret Separation” links or tracks seem to have been replaced with the “How Much is Enough” tracks that you posted the next day. Can you please direct me to the correct links for these? Thanks again.
Thanks for the kind words. I did a massive clean up of posts a while back and I must have entered the wrong links when fixing this post. The links have been corrected on the post now, thanks for letting me know, you should be able to get the right files now.
Thanks for the quick response! You are amazing. DjpaulT and yourself have such nice tastes in music. It ‘s a real treat to check in and see what’s new every day.
