    Hmm, the CoP site says "pre-order" but SAE says its "in stock"? slant
    I love you all. Never change. Well, unless you want to!
  2. SAE says it has stock and is shipping now. So if ordered from Tadlow direct then it could be this week? Though with free shipping that means it will be 2nd class postage - so it could be anytime. I should have ordered it from somewhere that sends first class!!

    More clips over at SAE.

    2nd class has never taken that long in my experience though in the case of this, any time is too long crazy

    I'm afraid my world famous patience has deserted me.

    Great score, but I prefer my Milan CD program.

    If this CD had come out in that program, but with the added performance "oomph" and sound quality, then I'd be game.

    But I'm confident it will sell well. If there's one score that everyone seems to like, it's this.
    I am extremely serious.
  4. I first heard the Milan release and hated it, then Varese was wonderful. I know, weird. You should go with the Varese program, slightly remastered and about 10-15 mins of new material.

    I THANK CROM AND ALL THE SKY GODS THAT YOU, THOR, HAVE NOTHING TO DO WITH THIS BEING RELEASED!

    He, he...yeah, it probably wouldn't sell well within our niche. But probably far more outside (where the score is surprisingly popular)?

    Yeah, I've been thinking about that one for many years, but didn't really feel the need to check it out when I was so pleased with the Milan program.

    Thor, usually we agree.
    This time however, I fear have no option but to crush you, see you driven before me and hear the lamentation of your women.

    Dreadfully sorry.

    Jup. One rather nice version, and one horribly ugly. It's as if they secured their place in the THE GOOD, THE BAD AND THE UGLY cover thread by securing either title.

    None of them are good. Maybe they couldn't secure the rights to the original artwork and/or Schwarzenegger's likeness.

    The one with just the arm on it is good, I have no quibbles with that one.

    And yes, most likely Arnold's image on the cover would have cost.

    That's probably what I'll do too. Have to wait for my next paycheck. crazy

    Those clips are really stunning. Fitzpatrick, Raine and City of Prague nail it again.

    I knew this release was coming, as some of the score sheets were provided by the Úbeda guys (from the 2006 concert). I've made a huge effort not to tease Tim with this knowledge tongue

    I bow to your wisdom and for not torturing me to an extent that would have lasted four years.
