> 1000 pressed apparently and staying at my mate Steves I was played off
> to sleep with a couple of cuts - full length version of the excellent
> Runaway Love by Linda Clifford then Sarah Vaughan Inner City Blues -
> never even heard this before. Sallied forth to Borderline Records in
> Brighton to get myself a copy to find that there is not just one but 4
> of these comps - number 4 I think put together by P Forge. on the "too
> much of a good thing" tip I stuck with just the Dr Bob wax so was
> wondering whether anyone else had picked up other volumes.

> Also, anyone care to post some Bob Jones information? He's still
> playing on Kiss FM right?

> Finally, what do we know about BBE - looking to me like a small but
> perfectly formed little operation...
