          It's a fine set, played on instruments of various vintages. Some 'historical' some modern.

          Around 75% of what I paid a couple of years ago. Miss a meal or two.

            Wholeheartedly seconded. The Images alone are worth the relatively small amount being asked. He's an exceptionally intelligent musician.

                  This looks a good buy even with a chunk of duplications on the shelves!

                            How on earth did you know, ferney?

                            This much-heralded package was being delivered by UPS with sound & trumpets galore via its tracking system and it did indeed take an age to arrive, not least because of the Bank Holiday weekend, but then various unforeseens circs, etc

                            Anyway it was waiting for me when I got in very early this morning and I'm delighted to have it
