Agreed - I think I was 15ish (1995) when I bought this on CD... It was definitely a Maccas paycheque purchase. Astounding so many of the social issues of the ‘80s remain completely unchanged.

It would have been late ‘80s or 1990 for me when I bought that album and we’d been married 15 years and had four children by then. I just have such distinct memories when I hear those tracks, it was in such high rotation back then............one of our favourite albums for sure with her words and phrasing painting such a vivid picture of the times we lived in.

Oh boy, it must have cost you a fortune. Is it a DMM as the OZ one? It’s probably the best Tracy’s album 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s probably the best Tracy’s album $150 - which for me is a bargain. Is DMM... both have MASTERDISK, but the other etchings are different.

Way too far I think. My understanding and how I meant the term Luddite with regard to my knowledge when it comes to mobile phones, is that a Luddite is someone who is typically incompetent when it comes to new technology. That certainly described me when I bought my iPhone 6 a couple of years ago and I haven’t really learnt all that much since. I wasn’t aware of the machinery busting luddites but I am now, so perhaps we’ve both learnt something. Cheers, Keith 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vinyl in truly excellent condition and sounding beautiful. Jennifer Warnes, Famous Blue Raincoat That has to be the bargain of the year. What a gem. Was one of the first CDs l bought when l ventured into high end audio....jealous. Highly rated by audiophiles. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThirdDrawerDown Posted January 11, 2020 Share Posted January 11, 2020 Trans = "many burros" (I hope the jokes get butter from here) Currently: It's admirable and engaging if you are into the soul-baring school of singer-songwriters. Surprisingly, a keeper. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
