Nice work. Re Butterfly: once Andy became the Earl of Cardigans with his easy image TV show, he was keen to erase this Elvis imitation from his catalogue, even though it had been a UK and US no.1. So he bought the rights to his Cadence recordings very early on. I don’t think they were ever re-issued on vinyl, and Butterfly appeared on cd for the first time a couple of years back when Ace put out his first couple of albums. Possibly explains the Spotify hole.

His revisionism worked, though, cos Butterfly is now an obscure no.1 unless, like my parents, you remember it from the time: almost no airplay from the seventies onwards. I recommend Andy’s saucily eager lite-rock follow-up, I Like Your Kind Of Love.

How do people find the sound quality on Spotify? I find the files are so compressed they lack a lot of punch and sound really hissy, like listening to a badly tuned FM radio. Or is that just my overactive ears?

Nice work, Tom. I’m impressed by the range, speed and sound quality on Spotify, which sounds fine on the little speakers attached to my computer…
