Three fine albums from JJ Cale. Packaging will be modest, but so is the price.

Three-CD set featuring early seventies albums from the Welsh hard rockers, Budgie. Excellent price in the UK for this set.

The Keith Emerson is a reissue. I have the original set. Good to see it readily available to others, since it’s truly excellent from start to finish!
Hello Paul,
Do you know if the first or only real albums by Fischer Z are in the pipeline to be re-released ?
Would be nice to see these in a budget box set inclusive the first 2 John Watts albums.
Also out is Steve Gunn’s Eyes on the Lines which is the follow up to his exellent Way out Weather that was one of the best albums of 2014 for me.
