So, the US release will include the 2nd disc - let's hope it's not the same content as the French one (although it probably will be)!

l8rs,

Nick ;)

...well, we've learned that this chemical brothers remix is going to be the extended instrumental remix, which was only featured on the australian (?) release of the HTS-single. :nod:

I just thought it was very surprising that Billboard, which is all about sales and marketing, would have its lead article on this subject.

Amongst the myriad of variations on latest NO releases P, which have you ordered utilising your magical and generous ordering capability? - all, some, or (b) another number.

Has the billboard report influenced your decision?

Well, let's see, H, I have ordered one version of International, one Retro, and one Confusion. So you see I've been quite restrained.

Have any turned up yet? ... pal of mine mentioned he'd heard A Baker's new Confusion about 6 months ago - have they lost the masters?

Restrained, yes, it would seem so. Perhaps the house is full and no more CD's can fit inside? - unless you have one of them classic American 'basements' which is the equivalent size to a mid-size house in the UK.

Rock Stone, have you ordered vinyl through the postal system? ... are they packing them in egg boxes and tissue papyrus or are you prepared to run the risk?

Nothing has turned up yet. Presumably the least interesting will be the first to appear, namely Substance 2002.

I don't have a basement like that, H, but I do think I could find room for one or two more CD's. I could always get rid of my refrigerator. On second thought, no, I'll keep it.

Don't be daft...local shop TOWNSENDS RECORDS as the last time a record came through the post,a promo of TRUE FAITHLESS it was considerably broken ,torn and trashed.So now i always go to the shop,with a pair of marigolds,my MJ mask and an armed guard (MAD PHIL and his mum!)to ensure the correct and PERFECT copy is obtained.Failing that i will break into HMV PRESTON on my day off!:D

Wanna bet?

I'm sure it will be the exact same thing... useless, useless and useless.

Fortunatly, I still resist from the urge of buying it.

Did you order all of this online, if so... where?
