What an amazing flashback - I used EIL quite a bit as a student in the mid-late 90s.

They were by far the best online record shop at the time, and iirc were one of the first UK retailers to bother using SSL.

I'm a little ashamed to admit that I've not used them since Amazon started selling music in 2000-ish. In retrospect, that was probably a mistake so I'm going to spend some time on EIL next weekend to make amends
