I received two CDs. They sent a CD instead on the vinyl. I spent Tuesday travelling home from Kings Cross looking forward to getting my hands on the vinyl record, only to be disappointed :( Now have to wait until they receive the CD back before I can get the vinyl sent to me. Crazy! I have listened through once. Listening to bits while I work. But not sat down and really got into it yet. I do like it and I think some songs will become favourites. I don't have a problem with the cover. Though don't think an more up to date pic would have hurt either. I'm happy as long as Ferry is on the cover tbh. I like the Boys and Girls album with him on one side and cover art on the other. Perhaps he could have done that again? But I do like this cover anyway. > From: kbporter@verizon.net > To: avalon@smoe.org > Subject: [AVALON] Avonmore > Date: Wed, 19 Nov 2014 17:14:57 -0500 > > It arrived today! > > Amazon credited my pre-prelease order amount by US$4.00!
