2011 CD

Unfortunately the content and quality of the recording, whilst good, was not of a standard suitable for a CD to be released to the public and subsequently the advertised CD is not being produced.

Sorry for any inconvenience caused, but I’m sure you will understand that we have to be fair to the participating bands as in live recording lots of untoward things can occur
