Problem with Bowie Post

A couple of days ago, I posted a David Bowie album, called "BBC Sessions, Volume 8: 1990-1999." Today, I got a notice saying the post had been taken down due to a copyright violation. I decided then to post the exact same music to YouTube, to find out just what the violation is. I've done this several times before, found a song or two causing the problem, removed the problem, then reposted here successfully. But to my surprise, the YouTube program checking for violations didn't find any problem. So that album is now posted at YouTube, at this link:

If you still want that music, I suggest you go there in a hurry. The download link is mentioned in my comments. After the initial copyright violation check when a new YouTube upload happens, I've discovered many albums get deleted within a few days. My guess is there are various spider bots searching YouTube for violations run by different copyright holders. So I'll wait and see what happens. If that does get flagged here, hopefully I'll be able to remove whatever songs are the issue and then repost it here.
