BRUMBEAT - THE STORY OF THE 60S MIDLANDS SOUND

I have to admit, I don't listen to 50s or 60s music from any part of the world, much less the Midlands, but I thought the new Brumbeat CD set would be worth having anyway.

I know fully well, in the end, this will eventually sit with the CDs that rarely get touched, but I'm finding a lot to like about this.  I can only measure the Move and Idle Race tracks when I judge sound quality and frankly, Day Of The Broken Arrows surprised me.  Only because I thought the Back To The Story set was as good as the sound quality gets on these songs.  Wrong.

It makes the whole prospect of the upcoming Idle Race boxed set more appetizing... and Sanctuary is quickly winning me over.
