The Sire Sessions CD

Hey Guys!

Has anyone gotten a copy of the "Sire Sessions" CD from Raven in Australia that wasn't screwed up in the recording?. Between gifts for friends, fellow fans, and attempts through multiple sellers, I must have bought over a dozen, and all were recorded on one "side" or channel only.

I wrote to Raven over a year ago. No response, except for a catalogue this year. So if anyone knows where I can find good copies, I'd appreciate it. How come Rhino hasn't put this, or the RCA stuff out. They usually do quality work

I believe that some of the first pressings were faulty and were supposed to have been withdrawn. I bought a copy a year or two ago which plays fine. By the way, the RCA tracks were issued on CD by Taragon last year. I think that both are still available online through CDNow.

Here is a photo of The Searchers taken in 1979 at the time of the "Loves Melodies" album which was released by Sire in North America in 1981.
