The physical CD release is June 2nd (according to the press release from Nettwerk), so you were right in thinking that it wasn't out yet. I've noticed a recent trend towards releasing albums digitally earlier than the CD, sometimes several months earlier.

We have 50 boxes of LP's that we will need to be unpacking and getting into shelving. I would love to use bamboo, found one kind, for LP's even... has anyone used any? also best ideas welcome. Including any DIY plans May DIY some bamboo cases (from planks) Living in earthquake country so I need to bolt or wire to wall Cheers Birdie ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 26 May 2009 16:26:28 -0700 From: Neile Graham Subject: Abnormally Surprised by Liking this Album Okay, I wasn't a fan of American Doll Posse (it just seemed too much in the 1970s/1980s-rock vein which I didn't like much the first time it came around) and I *hated* The Beekeeper (seemed too sweet and bland to me), but the more I listen to this the more I like it--much to my surprise. Maybe I'm not done with Tori after all. Hmm, I don't like "Not Dying Today" "Maybe California" or "500 Miles" and the guitar on the title track sounds like American Doll Posse, but the rest (and with these alums that at least an album's worth) I'm really starting to enjoy. Maybe I need to go back and give America Doll another spin--I never did get around to offering it up on http://www.musicboomerang.com-- speaking of which, blessings on them for sending me a copy of the deluxe edition of Abnormally Attracted for $1.00 (+ another disc I no longer wanted + postage to send out said disc). - --Neile - ------------------------------------------------------------------------ - - Neile Graham .... neile@sff.net/@zipcon.com ... www.sff.net/people/neile Les Semaines: A Weekly Journal ........ www.sff.net/people/neile/ semaines Editor, The Ectophiles' Guide to Good Music ........... www.ectoguide.org Workshop Administrator, Clarion West ................ www.clarionwest.org ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 26 May 2009 19:57:53 -0700 From: birdie Subject: kate havnevik tomorrow @ The Living Room 8pm Hey ya.....
