I guess this is kind of filling my own request made almost 10 years ago, but still......funnily, one of my favorites.

So......for all you David Austin fans (the three of you out there..... :D ) here is the illusive Japanese mini-LP in pristine quality.
Thanks to the original uploader.

Thank you for sharing the Japan EP!

EDIT: Unfortunately it's not true lossless - if you use the Spek program, you can see why - but at least I'll have a couple of the other songs.

I am surprised to hear that.
It was originally in aif format and all I have done is to convert it to flac (best quality).

The spectrals of the album point to it being sourced from lossy MP3 files: https://imgur.com/6eYRKGM

was never that fussed over "turn to gold" but thought "this boy loves the sun" to be quite catchy, this will be better than the average mp3 i have of that....cheers
