Thread Name: morality of collecting
Subject: RE: morality of collecting
It is very important that the issue is kept very public so that "they" who possess these priceless recordings know that there are thousands of people out there who are passionate about wanting our heritage back, and in all its glory, and with a good dose of fair play to the artists who did all the work. Dammit, even if the soddin' tapes have rotted a good lab could do wonders with vinyl copies. Hey, what was wrong with vinyl anyway! Mr Bulmer may agree with that and I wonder whether he sold all those excess stocks of vinyl LPs he used to moan about. I didn't see too many ads for them in Froots when I was a subscriber in the days before it disappeared up its own world music 'arris. The good fight, at the end of which everyone will be a victor, must continue. Excelsior!
