Carl, have all the YBS performances appeared on previous highlights cds?

Not sure as I'm not familiar with Highlights CDs from 1997, 1998 & 1999. They are not in our current catalogue.
I do know that we had to obtain permission to use Burlesque (1998), Blitz and Harmony Music (1999) for this release.

Hope that helps but maybe you can shed some light on 1997, 1998 & 1999 for me.

Thank you to everyone who visited (and purchased from) our trade stand over the weekend.
It was hard work and Kevin and I were grateful for the assistance from our wives who joined us on Saturday!

It you weren't in Glasgow, you'll be able to catch us at the Gramercy Anniversary Concert and the Grand Shield this coming weekend.
