Silvers > EAC > TLH > Hunger City
Some of these discs did not line up with the covers
Splitting tracks and combining tracks where required has remedied that.
Audacity, CD Wav and Traders Little Helper were used for the repairs
Some of the covers also required small tweeks to repair typos.
Not altogether a Direct transfer but an improved version of the Silvers with these errors corrected.
