Hey - this is a touch harsh!!!
The albums have only just been made available for purchase - very few
people have got them yet - I haven't and several other folk I know (who
would be willing to review) haven't either.    Also when the project was
first mooted there was a discussion and I can clearly remember FoFP
posted a long and very complimentary article about Rob Godwin with
appreciation for all he has done and the efforts he had put into getting
these two CD's available for circulation and distribution together with
thanks for his efforts.   And several people backed this up as well.

I endorse all of this - I'm delighted that the albums have finally made
it to CD and if anyone has kept copies of the previous correspondence
thanking Rob Godwin please could they forward it.

cheers
