Dodgy Geezer's music track

Post by fuzzel »

I've just started playing Dodgy Geezers by Melbourne House. To whet my appetite I've read a couple of reviews, one of which, from Acorn User (below) mentions that there's a piece of music on the reverse of the cassette. Does anyone know if this sound file is available anywhere to listen to? If not, if someone has a copy of the original cassette and the necessary equipment could they check it out and if possible upload it please?

Thanks lurkio, I must try harder next time to find things. I'm afraid I didn't make it to the end of the song, not my cup of tea I'm afraid. The game itself looks promising although having read a couple of reviews it appears that you have to be in the right place at the right time to make progress which is one of my major bugbears with adventure games (along with lamps that run out, very tight move counters and being severely restricted in how many objects you can carry).
