Stu,

 

mine's on its way from jpc

 

The music is on spoty, i gave it a listen, a bit strange in places but i do like it, and think it will be a grower.

 

hope the vinyl is good

Yes, I have the black vinyl version. I was concerned I would hate it, but I don't. In fact, I like it and there some tracks that really quite wonderful.

 

Mine has what appears to be a pressing fault at the beginning of The Musical Box and my local record shop tells me the vinyl has sold out, which is a bit of a bummer. I would be interested to know if others have had the same problem.

 

If you're worried, check out on Spotify first, but I highly recommend it. Can't wait for the gigs in May.

Acquired the 24/88.2 FLAC download direct from Hackettsongs.com and, once you get used to the different vocalists, the arrangements are great and the guitar playing really comes to the fore. And some great woodwind playing from Rob Townsend to boot.

 

Really an album for the Genesis/Hackett fan, but then I am, I admit  Could well introduce others to the music too, especially the connections with Opeth, Djabe, PT and others.

PS And, yes, can't wait until May either.

Keith,

No problems with my black vinyl.

A freind had to send his back though because two of the LPs were a bit bent.

Side one took a few mins to get used to but all good after that.

Some very nice re-workings .

I like it alot.

 

Now all i need is my Beatles set to turn up.

Thats my Christmas Presents from the family sorted for 2012.

Hi Stu,

 

My local record shop has got me a replacement but I haven't played it yet.

 

The Beatles box set is on the first step of the stairs in its cardboard box. It's a Christmas present so I can't listen to it :-0
