The Next XTC Surround Sound Release...The Complete Dukes Of Stratosphear!

[haikubass]

That's old news. John Dent's "flat transfer" was released a few years ago.

Right. What I meant was the still 'lost in the archives' part.

For those who ordered from Burning Shed:

Sir John Johns and the notoriously reclusive E.I. E.I. Owen will each sign a number of cards for initial buyers of Psurroundabout Ride (the cards will be randomly allocated, so purchasers may get either signature with their purchase).

WAT

E.I. E.I. Owens and Sir John Johns (respectively)

Plus the postcards look very beautiful (even without the signatures)

Does this mean I have to purchase two copies and take my chance that I’ll get one of each signature?

So we have Ei Ei Ow(ens) so where is Old MacDonald?

Here's an 80 minute interview/podcast recorded about 10 years ago of a look back at the Dukes with Andy Partridge and producer John Leckie. It's very fascinating and worth listening to!

Yes.

Just got an email that the release has been pushed back a week:

Hi

Thanks for your order for the Dukes reissue.

We are sorry to say that the release date has been put back to 18th October 2019 due to manufacturing issues with the 200g vinyl.

There is an outside chance that the date might go back again to October 25th if the vinyl does not arrive in the UK in time (the LPs are made and are just waiting to be assembled so we are hoping that this won't be necessary).

We apologise for any inconvenience.

On the plus side, the signed postcards have arrived from Sir John John and E.I. E.I. Owen and are ready to be packed!

 

[edisonbaggins]

I got that email, even though I ordered no vinyl. Then I got a blank email concerning the CD/BD!

 

[paligap]

I asked if the delay also applied to the cd/blu-ray version, and they said yes.

 

[rtbluray]

The signed postcards look great!

 

[atrocity]

I got that email, even though I ordered no vinyl. Then I got a blank email concerning the CD/BD!

I just got the blank email and now you've dashed my hopes that I was being singled out for persecution!

 

[J. PUPSTER]

I just got the blank email and now you've dashed my hopes that I was being singled out for persecution!

I got one blank email and one noting the delay or delays

 

[halbroome]

I wondered why there were two emails (including the blank one), but it's probably an expediate way to explain why to everyone without having two different messages. Weird the vinyl would hold up the discs, though.

Gives us more time to listen to Abbey Road!
