A ZX Spectrum program available for streaming

A ZX Spectrum program on a Cobra Laser EP… streaming-only

After Lightfire, available on streaming platforms, here comes the album ZX Spectrum, which also contains a program for… ZX Spectrum. Like the first one, it doesn’t seem to have been released physically.
