That's the CD I have of ITCOTCK and it's plenty good enough.

I'm not really a fan of EC, but I've just listened to side one of the Unplugged album on musicassette and decided to give this a spin on vinyl - not sounding so bad. 

There was a time a few years ago when. if I was stuck for something to play, my vinyl of this went on. the Rega.

   Big Country - The Crossing.                                                                            Frankie Miller - Full House.

   Still stuck in a Jock Rock groove, with "The Crossing", probably one of the best debut albums ever, and Frankie Miller, surely one of

   the finest UK soul voices. (IMHO)

I listened to the three tracks available earlier on. Sounded promising. Available, as we say on this side of the pond, on 30/03/18.

Enjoy it!
