Enjoy!
 
Awesome!This looks amazing. Well done.
Hand on heart, there are a few albums I regard as highly as something like The Queen Is Dead.
Jordan: The Comeback is one of them.

Tell me, is that the same version of Cowboy Dreams from the Gunman album?
 
Thanks, lastparty

I think the "Cowboy Dreams" version is the radio edit and shorter [3:40] than the version that appears on the album [5:19]. My favourite PS album is "Steve McQueen" but every PS album is a must...
 
Hi there

Another request here for anyone kind enough to re-upload these treasures. Computer crash at fault for me this time - I've joined the long list of those who thought that they had files backed up safely only to find they weren't!

Thanks in advance for a re-upload but I will understand if it doesn't appear!
