The Boris Midney / Festival CD release featured here is the original Polygram CD from 1998, which was quickly discontinued and now out of print and now going for over $100.(US) on the used CD market. It is from the original master tapes and the sound quality is absolutely amazing with clarity, depth and bass impact. In addition to including all the tracks from the 1979 vinyl album, Polygram threw in the single edit of Don't Cry For Me Argentina.
A later reissue by the Oz Records label with a different colored cover was released in 2000 from a not as good sound source, but that also is out of print and now difficult to locate.

The Festival CD of Evita is out of print as is the original vinyl album. Best place to keep checking on a weekly basis for the vinyl or CD is GEMM and Amazon for MP3 tracks from the Evita album.
