What, it sounds like an elderly racist anti-vaxxer who sues somebody for
flogging an old bootleg CD for a tenner?

How much? Bloomin heck no wonder he was annoyed.
There is that wolfgang web site with anyone you could care to get live on
it for a moderate sub as far as I know.

What constitutes an oldie, recording wise I wonder?
Maybe its me getting old, but apparently Selene' Diones The Hot Dogs go on
, erm sorry The heart does go on, is now an oldie.

Its 1998, quite what that makes tracks like Telstar by the Tornados is
anyone's guess, and yet re issues of old Beatle stuff remixed into surround
sound etc, sells by the bucket load.

Probably the principal not the actual sum. It could easily be one of many
home burned copies. I have many concerts on CD recorded from the BBC and all
sorts, but that was when BBC had properly engineered recordings that had
dynamic range and did not sound like a cheap cassette machine with a gain
riding level control on it.

I would hope she can now sue the store who sold it to her late husband
for (at least) twice the sum she is required to pay as they are (IMHO)
clearly the culprits.

Just a thought, if her husband bought it rather than recorded it
himself, will Clapton now chase the original bootlegger?

I had permission to record all my "bootlegs" though releasing them could
be tricky...

Not for years - an old fiend of mine played one of his regularly at
breakfast in the days we both had rooms in the same big (very big) shared
house in Chaucer Road.

Yes that one.
