Comments and Reviews

Magic Marmalade 19th Nov 2015		I'd be lying if I said this wasn't the basis of my collecting habit... I got this when I was young, and was simply fascinated by the images, and used to spend hours gazing at them without knowing about the music especially, so when I started getting in to record collecting, I find I'm more excited to find a record of no particular rarity found in here than even when I've found a rarer record that was not. :)
