Notes
I think this is probably one of the most elusive CDs I own, from the day of me first hearing it, to me owning it on physical media. It was way back in 1989 when I first heard the song "Beds Are Burning", on a Friday Night. I was in front of the radio, recording songs off the radio, as when you're 9, that's how you build up your record collection. I liked it, and was after it for years. I picked up a copied C90 of the album from the fleam market for a nominal amount of pennies, but it wasn't an original copy!

Years, decades went by, and I'd be occasionally reminded of the song "Beds Are Burning". It's get played on some obscure radio show, or a Youtube video would feature it, or something.

It's not really that obsue, and I could have probably picked it up on ebay if I really wanted it, but that really spoils the fun of the chase. the chase ended this Saturday, when I picked it up for 40p. Rather delighted.

On 23rd July, 2013, I was listening to a recording of a radio show called "Crap From The Past", which has been airing on community
