What CD, book, DVD etc are you waiting for?

[Beef Oven]

If it's the Ozit issue, it looks very much to still be a compilation of 'bootleg' material:

Groan Thanks Bryn.

[Bryn]

By the way, this adds to my doubts about the authenticity of the disc. If the Zappa Family Trust does have access to the masters, let's indeed hope they do eventually get issued.

[Flosshilde]

let us know if its worth getting.......look forward to the review !!

(don't suppose it will get much of an airing on radio 1 ).

Or Radio3 ?

What's the difference between bootleg material & music downloaded or copied from the intenet without payment?

[Bryn]

Or Radio3 ?

Rather more likely, on LJ.

There are various live versions of tracks (which aren't bad) but the studio versions of 'Floppy Boot Stomp', 'Owed't'Alex', etc sound too good quality to be from a bootleg cassette tape. Mind you, I recently got 'Lick my decals off, baby' on vinyl and it is just so much better than CD: it's the first vinyl I have bought for years. To be honest, I have only listened to Dust Sucker on ipod, I really need to blast it through my HiFi to judge properly. It was certainly sold as being from the original masters, following settling of the legal disputes. It was supposed to be released on Don's 71st birthday (but got delayed).

You can have a listen to 'Dust Sucker' on spotty if you do that kind of thing Beef Oven. I'd never heard of it till a short while back and it was good to hear but I headed back for 'Bat Chain Puller'.

Currently listening/watching/reading my way through Dust Sucker.

[Mahlerei]

Quite a list, Bryn. I'd be interested to know your opinion of the Gerhard/Maso; I'm a great admirer of Maso's Mompou cycle.

That's the order that came to just over £50, thus qualifying for free p&p, Mahlerei. The Gerhard piano music cost all of £2.75. The package is being sent to my workplace. Hopefully it will get there by Monday, (I rest Tuesday and Wednesday next week).

Is that Maxwell Daves anthology assembled from Collins Classics originals ??

It's this thing, Alison:

At £3.75 for 2 CDs, I thought it worth a punt, if mainly for the CDROM aspect.

This arrived today:

£5.69 (including postage) for two Shostakovich CD's including Ogden in the 2nd Piano Concerto. Han-na Chang in the 1st Cello Concerto and Sarah Chang in the 1st violin concerto. It fills some gaps in my collection and sounds very impressive. Worth waiting two weeks for.

Bryn, I am curious. Why do you have your packages sent to your workplace?
