Looking forward to seeing more releases from Seelie Court label in the not-so-distant-future. A great reissue label and I'll certainly be buying the NTP LP as soon as it's released. I think it's so important to release reissues in the same cover design as it was originally released, as it's the next best thing to owning the original and very appealing. Of course, not always possible with acetates which never had a cover designed in the first place. But when I bought the Anaconda - Sympathy For the Madman LP and noticed it had the inlay-sleeve which had the same design as what the original acetate looked like in it's original inlay, I was very happy. Not many reissue labels would goto that effort. But I would like to see a few of these Very rare & Collectable UK Folk/Private Pressings (I shall list below) - being released on vinyl. The LP's I list below have never seen a vinyl reissue before (except for the Alco LP, but it only had a reissue of 50 copies from Japan) So I had very little chance of ever obtaining that for my collection)
