Thanks for sharing.

As for the tracklist: Apparently there were extensive liner notes included that we just don't have (https://www.discovery-records.com/product-ST52309/various/the-essential-guide-to-world-cinema-3cdandhellip;.htm). Maybe they'll turn up. Till then there's lots of fine music to enjoy.

Quite interesting! Thanks a lot.

Thanks :)

It's dead, Jim. :-(

Geez...how did that happen? I spent 3 hours uploading these. *sigh*. Let me see what I can do.

Well, if anyone is interested, I converted these to ALAC and if Mike has trouble re-uploading them and people is cool with the format, I could upload it. I'll wait for the original poster's answer.

Please, Mike Flaherty, can you accept the AFMG's proposal?
I am interested in the album.

The links work fine.
Thank you very much. Mike.

Until the time of my last message, the links say "account temporary disabled". When I saw the Petros' I went again, and it's working, but I don't know how much time.

the links were disfunctional for some time,because of overuse.right now they work fine.thank you.

AFMG - if you wish to do that, you can absolutely. That would be great. Thanks.

Ok, will do and leave the link here in case you want to add it to the main post as a backup.
