Congrats upsetter. It would be great if you could comment on how it sounds when you get a chance to listen to it.

Somehow, I have the feeling that it will not be listened to.

Of course! I'm looking into buying a reel to reel player once it arrives for a listen - I'll have a look at the condition of the tape first though! I'm presuming it'll be the original US mix but who knows? :)
