RTR/Extras/Songs
This website contains an archive of files for the Acorn Electron, BBC Micro, Acorn Archimedes, Commodore 16 and Commodore 64 computers, which Dominic Ford has rescued from his private collection of floppy disks and cassettes.
Some of these files were originally commercial releases in the 1980s and 1990s, but they are now widely available online. I assume that copyright over them is no longer being asserted. If you own the copyright and would like files to be removed, please contact me.

File contents
I attach two beatles songs :-) Eleanor Rigby ------------- Eleanor Rigby Sits at the keyboard, and waits for a line on the screen, lives in a dream. Waits for a signal finding some code that will make the machine do some more. What is it for ? All the lonely users, where do they all come from ? All the lonely users, why does it take so long. Guru McKenzie Typing the lines of a program that no one will run; Isn't it fun? Look at him working, Munching some chips as he waits for the code to compile; It takes a while... All the lonely users, where do they all come from ? All the lonely users, why does it take so long. Eleanor Rigby Crashes the system and loses 6 hours of work; Feels like a jerk. Guru McKenzie Wiping the crumbs off the keys as he types in the code; nothing will load. All the lonely users, where do they all come from ? All the lonely users, why does it take so long. ------------------------------ Yesterday Yesterday, All those backups seemed a waste of pay, now my database has gone away, Oh I belive in yesterday. Suddenly, There's not half the files there used to be, and there's a millstone hanging over me the system crashed so suddenly. I pushed something wrong what it was I couldn't say, now all my data's gone and I long for yesterday-ay-ay-ay. Yesterday, The need for backups seemed so far away. I knew my data was all here to stay, Now I belive in yesterday.
