I recently go the Spike Jones shows from him and Steptoe and Son. 80 shows on one CD-R ! They are a bit compressed ofcourse but nice to have and still very funny.Wastedpapiershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06833050707322694789noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7643791.post-1116793201202794642005-05-22T21:20:00.000+01:002005-05-22T21:20:00.000+01:00I had the Eagle too for a while.
