Hi Ozzie. Just wondering on the chance you still have this CD if you might be able to upload a FLAC version here.I love the album and appreciatte the mp3, however I'd love a flac to be able to burn to a disc & play on my big stereo. Just had a look online & the only copy of CD on ebay is going for $280+ as a buy it now. As much of a collector as I am, that's out of my price range. Thanks In Advance.
