My Thanks also - I have downloaded both, and the quality is generally very
good indeed.

Thank you again.

Goran,

Thanks, I've downloaded both. And I think it's great that you uploaded
uncompressed flac files- for those new to the world of bit torrent, flac
files are cd quality and far better than MP3s.  Again for those new to bit
torrent, a bit of etiquette- look at the total download and upload amounts
and at the very least, leave the torrent open until you have uploaded as
much as the download. Personally I leave the torrent open until at I have
uploaded at least twice as much as the download, usually much more as I
download at night and leave it open all night. And never upload anything
that could take money away from the artist, for example any licensed album
(not that this is an issue with Sparks fans- I'm sure most people on this
list have everything on cd, including a homemade Introducing, and everything
on vinyl too). Regarding these particular downloads, I'm sure the BBC has no
intention of releasing them and Sparks don't own the tapes, so nobody is
hurt, but Sparks fans win.
My favourite quote regarding 'bootleg' tapes comes from Chris Carter of
Throbbing Gristle: "We don't care if you bootleg our live shows as long as
the quality is high and you send us two copies."  Then again, Throbbing
Gristle recorded and released every live show they played aside from one
(LA, 1981- I have a tape of it).

ps Most of us have cds of Introducing and the Halfnelson demos, but I'm sure
we'd all buy official releases- hint hint.
