- Strange... I've got both "Rhythm of Youth" (1982) and "Folk of The 80's"
- (1984) on CD at home, and they're not european releases - Both were 'Made
- in Canada' and released by Static Records, Canada.
-
- The catalogue numbers are CDST 10 and CDST 18. Are they test pressings or
- pre-releases or something?
-
- I've had them for ages - found them in London 5-6 years ago.
