I take a slightly more pragmatic view - I wouldn't want anyone to make money out of those albums if Nic Jones isn't getting anything, but I wouldn't want anyone who missed out the first time round to be deprived of hearing the music. So buy the albums if you can't get hold of the music any other way, but send Mollie Music the royalty Nic should have got as well. (Or a bit more. Maybe the price of a pint per album?)
