Many thanks to this years Vinyl Santa. It always amazes me when people find records I do not have and with the “This Is My Street” album, I have been looking for a copy for ages! Happy Christmas all! #VinylSanta
I sold out of This Is My Street quite a long time ago now, although there's some copies in the US of A at Jigsaw Records. Happy you got it!
If you head over to my Bandcamp (link in the comments) you can now get a seasonally appropriate new song, "It's Christmas All Over Again" from my forthcoming album "THE ONE TRUE PRINCE OF WALES (in exile after abdication)" which will be out next year thanks to the good people at Hurrah Música...
