Edward German's Merry England

[Eine Alpensinfonie]

Ein Alp, the 2010 Penguin Guide lists a version (complete, without dialogue) conducted by Michael Collins. Its code is CfP Double 575 7672 (2)

If this is no longer available, it is presumably one of the deletions you mention.

Have you tried any second hand shops? Fine Records in Hove have a good selection (tel. 01273 723345).

I finally managed to get hold of the Michael Collins recording - new from Amazon, for under a fiver. Trust me - the timing is pure coincidence.
