Fantastic stuff.

I remember a lot of these bands/singers with fondness.

Perhaps I'm showing my age.

BTW it started today with Spandau Ballet! Will be getting the set - the only one I had already was Misplaced Childhood which I actually only picked up on CD last year (I bought it in on tape back in 1985 though!). Almost bought the TTD album a few weeks back - again I got it on tape when it came out - glad I didn't!
