Ben Watt "Summer Into Winter" (2020)

 

Just to show you I found a copy of Ben Watt´s Record Store Day release of "Summer into Winter" with Robert Wyatt. Originally released in 1982 on Cherry Red, now «It comes with brand new half-speed Abbey Road Studios remastering on translucent blue vinyl, and reverse board sleeves».

I don´t know how easy it will be to get this record in stores, but there are already several copies on ebay - and for much less than I had to pay over here in Bergen (Norway).

And most important: It´s still a beauty!!
