I probably shouldn't gloat but I finally got hold of John Cale's Music For A New Society in 192k MP3. And not half bad it sounds either.

Do you want the truth or the truth?


Not legally unfortunately, but the album is unobtainable. Well ok, not quite, but I don't risk paying 30 quid for a 2nd hand copy overseas from Amazon. I mean I've even asked friends in the UK to get a copy for me. The album is out of print, physically or digitally.
