Anybody got these?

Been looking for these for ages and begin to doubt they really exist:
Fiat Lux - I'm sure she will
Fiat Lux - Rebound
Fiat Lux - Calling On Angels
Fiat Lux - In the heat of the night
Fiat Lux - Hold me while you can
They are all listed on the hiredhistory page, but I've never come across one of them on vinyl (Have any copies of their 1984 LP (not the mini-album) been distributed for sale)?. If someone can help, it would also be nice to have a jpeg of the cover(s).

If I remember correctly, there was an unreleased lp titled Fac Ut Vivas. Some of the tracks from that lp were posted by Simon on his Torchomatic site. You should check with Dave (kopite) at hiredhistory dot com, he knows all there is to know about the Fiats.

There were 4 tracks on the Torchomatic site (God bless, this fantastic page!): embers, the moment, splurge and breaking the boundary. They all seem to be from the unreleased LP, which means that at least some copies must have seen the light unless the material wasn't taken from the master tapes.
But I've never seen a cover or found a hint to the record on any other webpages. The four songs above seem to be in circulation ever since they were posted on Torchomatic but I doubt that the people who share them have the record itself.
The songs I'm interested in are completely unkown to me and as there weren't any other releases I know of I wonder where they come from and what they sound like. No need to say, that a release of the complete Fiat Lux catalogue on CD is more than overdue.
I contacted Dave. Let's see what he'll reply.
Cheers everyone.

I've got a 16 track compilation called 'Hired History' which is a cleaned-up vinyl transfer, nicely done.

An official release would be nice.
