Gilbert & Sullivan - 9 Complete Operettas torrent

Ripped to FLAC format as individual tracks in folders and fully tagged with thumbs.

Also includes a folder of 1000-pixel scans of front and back covers. I have not scanned the full booklets as they only contained basic info on the operettas that is easily available online.
