Liked that....shame about the DJ liking the sound of his own voice.

It's not great, is it? From what I've heard so far, this album is Recorded Delivery Pt2. Dated, bland AOR.

Ooooh, I like that! That's two songs I've heard right through and very small snippets of about 4 others. So I've got a feel for about half a dozen tracks. And I do like what I'm hearing. The ballad that was put out there initially I wasn't 100% keen on but the rest sound excellent. Note to self: must pre-order.

Looks value for money

There was some sort of race on social media to see who could order it first and then tell the world.... :-)

Amazon tell you not very much other than that the alternative mix is there. Can we assume that the normal mix is there as well?

A relatively new thing that the internet has encouraged. The chances of something being sold out by the day of official release seems unlikely no matter what it is. But it does play on 'fears' that you might miss out.

To return to the song .. Haven't listened to this yet (I assume it's just another snippet ?), but what kind of name is this ?? Twinkle Toes ?

You don't have to go into a shop and put your name on a list. It's done at the press of a button. It's not just music of course. Books get the same treatment. Probably other things as well.

Has everyone decided which package of the album that they are buying?
I had a look last night and there's now an option that includes both mixes of the album and one of those t-shirts that Rick liked/wore, perhaps that one has always been there and I've never noticed it. I'd imagine that one will be popular though. I like the look of the blue vinyl LP but that is just something else that I probably don't need and would just lie around and take up space.

I don't know what to buy. The box set I think will be a given and I've got round to buying vinyl again if it's Quo related. I need to properly study the options but I really need to know what's with each. I don't want too many duplicates although I appreciate there will be one or two. snakelady, twinkle toes is maybe a British expression. It basically just means someone who is quick or light on their feet. I have no idea who Rick might be referring to though!

I'd pre-ordered the CD but I'm thinking about cancelling it & ordering the boxset instead. Like the idea of the T-shirt & if it's decent quality then the price is pretty reasonable with the 2 CD's too. Hmm, decisions 🤔

I don't need anymore t-shirts but this one is special so I might go for the option that includes it.

I listened to the song just once last week. Sounded a bit like ELO to me. I won't listen to any of the snippets/songs again, but will be patiently awaiting the release of the album in March. I've pre-ordered the limited box set, by the way. With the opening bars, I know what you mean. Which is a pity coz I don't like ELO. Stop spoiling it for me
