Lost Canadian New Wave Classics

After several long distance moves, my vinyl collection is in bits.

Can anyone lead me to an mp3 version of Tic Toc - Twenty Questions and The Drivers - Tears on Your Anorak? As far as I know, no CD version of either exists (correct me if I'm wrong!).

Both were Canadian top 30 hits in 1983. The Drivers were a predecessor band to Cutting Crew.

A zillion thanks! This is a great example of classic 80's synth pop - as catchy and danceable now as ever! Like too many Canadian bands of the era, their time in the spotlight was far too short.
