Like so many record companies, Music Centre Wales (Tŷ Cerdd) provide no documentation with this download release. Nor could I find anything much on the internet. I have therefore included a copy of Gramophone magazine's review and the text of the Dylan Thomas poem. It appears that Music Centre Wales still have CDs for direct purchase and I imagine that these do include a booklet and tray inlay card. If anybody has them and is willing to scan, I shall be grateful for an upload.
