I got an email a few days ago saying they were "encountering a delay in shipping".... There was no new estimated delivery date!
The situation with this book has always been a bit vague and ...

I'm not buying this release. One extra expensive repackaging of old stuff a year is enough. Just release it on a couple of CD's at normal retail price

Van Morrison and Cliff Richard? That's a combination! I love Van singing "Cleaning Windows"
I'm listening to quite a bit of Aretha Franklin at the minute but also have just finished playi ...
