Maria,

I consider myself suitably chastened. I've only been a member here for a 
month or so, and though I had read your post of a few weeks ago, I'd still 
forgotten about the reissue. By way of explanation I can only say that I'm 
going through a very busy and stressful period while finishing off a PhD 
thesis, and that with the weight of information I'm having to deal with, 
unfortunately, I can't remember everything. I would also say that when I 
read about a 'reissue,' I didn't bother following the further links as I 
already have all the Delta 5 releases on vinyl, and have had since their 
time of issue. I didn't realise, therefore, that the Peel tracks would be 
included.

Obviously, if I had known, I wouldn't have posted one track, let alone six. 
My reasons for posting were purely that I thought these tracks had long been 
unavailable and, as far as I knew, would continue to be so.

Dan
