Hi Peter,

I agree with you to some extent about Suite London as it is not as listenable as the other albums and it does take some listening to to get into it. As a concept album, its an album that needs to be listened to all the way through rather than picking out single tracks. Having said that, it is an extremely well thought out and well performed album that was probably quite a brave project to undertake as it was not like any of the previous ones.

I am amazed at the prices it commands and am still looking for a nice example to buy but not at £40+ !

Its only a matter of time surely that it will be released on

cd ?

Regards

Derek
