Not exactly name your price but the Physical copy has been put as $1 (with free delivery). I have no expectation one will be sent but this is a solid Compass Point release so get on it. Physical copies are usually easily available for less than a tenner.

lost album of 1982 with Judy Mowatt singing backup on âIronyâ and âOver Hereâ
There could be several reasons why Barry Reynoldsâ album âI Scare Myselfâ did not gain as much popularity as Squeezeâs âSweets from a Strangerâ despite both being released in 1982. Here are some possible factors that may have contributed to this difference in popularity:
-
Different record labels: As mentioned, âI Scare Myselfâ was released on Island Records while âSweets from a Strangerâ was released on A&M Records. Both labels have different audiences and marketing strategies, which could have affected the reach and promotion of the albums.
-
Genre and target audience: Barry Reynoldsâ album falls under the categories of pop, rock and reggae, while Squeezeâs album is considered new wave/rock. The latter genre was more mainstream and popular at the time, which could have led to more widespread appeal and sales for âSweets from a Stranger.â
-
Lack of promotion: It is possible that Island Records did not invest as much in promoting Barry Reynoldsâ album as A&M Records did for Squeeze. This could have limited the exposure and reach of âI Scare Myself,â leading to lower sales and popularity.
-
Critical reception: The critical reception of an album can also greatly impact its popularity and success. While both albums received positive reviews, âSweets from a Strangerâ may have received more attention and praise from music critics, leading to increased buzz and interest from the public.
-
Timing: The timing of a release can also play a role in its success. It is possible that âSweets from a Strangerâ was released at a time when the music scene was more receptive to new wave/rock, while âI Scare Myselfâ may have been overshadowed by other popular releases at the time.
In conclusion, there could be various reasons why Barry Reynoldsâ 1982 album âI Scare Myselfâ did not gain as much popularity as Squeezeâs âSweets from a Stranger.â Factors such as record label, genre, promotion, critical reception, and timing may have all played a role in contributing to this difference in popularity.

Anyone on here try to buy and download the digital files from bandcamp? I bought but the downloads fail.
Edit: I tried to download again today and it worked. Iâm guessing it may have something to do with the big internet outage that was all over the news today.
Conned by Judy MowattâŚ
