The album is called "Steve Harley and Cockney Rebel - The Collection" and was a double LP in 'The Collectors Series" published by Castle Communications in 1988 - their reference number was CCSLP 197

Their address in case it is still live/still helps was Castle Communications PLC, Unit 7, Merton Road, London SW18 5JS

Several of the tracks on side 3 and 4 were live including Mr Soft

If you can't get hold of a copy via the originators then try Netsounds.com (www.netsounds.com) a secondhand web warehouse that brings together all the second hand offerings in the UK, Europe and beyond.

Good luck in tracking down a copy
Go if you must but you know you'll always be so easy to find

See, I'm torn. I found this one a while back and was all "OMG this is amazing" (I really like that whole album ESPECIALLY that version of Finally a Card Came) but then there is that live one from 75 (I'll post a link when I remember where I put it) that is much quicker and has a really cool staccato, almost jazz like delivery that got me swooning.

It's like choosing between my children. If I had any. Which I don't.
