I'll have to pass on that since so far as the Pet Clark is concerned I was commenting on the basis of what Brian said. Not my cup of tea! :-) My own recordings extend back to the 1970s. Most are in the 1970 - 1985 period, although a few are pre 1970. IIRC The BBC didn't start using any systematic automated level compression (as distinct from limiters) until the mid 1980s.
