Have you counted ALL the other duplications you have? If so what is the final total then?

| Sorry to you all just received MFM 2008 numbers now gone up to 1745 recordings of which 1077 separate pieces without duplications. When you have A Life on the Ocean Wave 43 times and all the other regular pieces it soon adds up. |

Do these collections include personal recordings on video and unofficial recordings 'donated' by mates in the know?

Re: Versions of LOTOW- 43 Recordings mostly arranged by Dunn and Alford and a Dunn Orchestral version. Then of course there is the up beat version by Mac McDermott.
All my recordings are LP, Cassettes, CD Video. Some cassettes are recordings of MFM as broadcast on BBC Radio and Some Videos of Broadcasts on Television.
Hope this meets with your approval |
