I just did exactly the same, bought Stranger and Cavaliers. I do have a record player but its nice to have this set. Plus my vinyls were practically worn out by my teenage self! I remember I hated my cheap and nasty record player and longed to have decent equipment to play my records. So, thanks to catching Steve by luck at Buxton I finally got my Cockney Rebel wishes, the other wish being to see them live, cos I was too young to travel south alone.
Happy days
