Steam in The Snow
Posted by Anonymous on Monday, July 8, 2002 3:55 PM
There was an Album put out by Allen Sherry in the early 1960's titled "Steam in the Snow".
He sold it privately and it covered Canadian Pacific Railway's last steam operations in the Montreal area around 1961. I would dearly love to get a clean copy on compact disc. Was this ever released in this format and where can I get it?

I kept a cassette copy of “Steam in the Snow” and recently transferred it to a CD with some software that helped to get rid of a lot of the worst clicks. This is my first time in a forum and I’m not sure what to do next. But I’ll mark my calendar to check this space tomorrow for further instructions.

heh, I said to myself, I bet the reply I first get
will be someone who's burned a CD him/her self from the vinyl.
So, it sounds like you had the vinyl originally, then taped it and then burned a CD from the tape;
does that sound about right?
My trouble started when, without realizing it, my vinyl was exposed to some kind of oil my JVC turntable was kicking off. It could probably be cleaned, but the job entailed would not be worth it, I'd imagine.
So we're talkng here of a 3rd/4th generation copy.
How do you feel about the quality?
How much would be involved all together' I live in Western Canada.
I'm sure the cost would not be prohibitive.
Please let me know.

That may be a more convenient way to communicate.
Thanks for the reply!
