By amazon.com listing is also labelled "import", like the four versions on .co.uk.

Where is this thing being pressed? No Pier Pressers?

Wonder why Lana Del Rey was excluded. Can't wait for April 7th.

Maybe Lana Del Rey will release the track on her next album. I'm not a fan of hers so this is no loss to me personally ...

Ah, we don't know squat yet. Maybe she'll be on a single version, and Brian will sing on the album mix? Just speculating, but the collaboration might not be complete toast.

Great news! 

There were two versions recorded, one with Del Rey's vocals and one with Brian's.  That was reported at the time, so maybe it was always the plan to have both versions out there in some fashion.  I'm hoping for a single version to hit the charts.

Sorry, not a Lana Del Rey fan AT ALL. I find her voice annoying.

Should be a great record!

The Del Rey duet (or whatever it was/is) was one of the more touted tracks in early articles. I'm wondering if perhaps they will try for that alternate version as a single. I'm frankly more intrigued by hearing her take on a Brian song than some other potential past or present guests. But I do remember thinking that, if it did indeed turn out to be a good song, then I would of course want a solo Brian take. So I'm glad we'll presumably get that if nothing else.

I'm extremely glad that Brian has included numerous tracks with Al (and David!). As we were discussing way back when these new album sessions were first being described, Al could actually feature more prominently on this album than the TWGMTR album! Of course, Al may be mostly on backing vocals on some of these tracks. It's sounding like he does the lead on "Right Time" if nothing else.

I'm also glad to see that there appear to be plenty "all Brian" songs. Contrary to some alarmist hyperbole some time back, this did not turn into a full-fledged "Duets" album.

The only disappointment is the Hollens tracks, which seemed unremarkable to me the couple times I listened to it. But maybe it's a different mix and/or take or something.

Looks like Brian is also taking a page out of the McCartney (and many others) playbook and putting out a "deluxe" version with a few extra tracks. I'm wondering if Target or Best Buy or iTunes will get any exclusives on this one as well.

Yeah, we heard that already. No huge loss. Maybe we can just listen to "Half Moon Bay" and pretend a man with a sleeveless shirt is doing the solo.

No Beck. Told you so. And plenty of songs left over for the next BB album, which BW has in the back of his mind. The Professor thinks this will be a gem, as some have said, if that Pete Holmes track is an indication--love that song.  2 tracks with DM and AJ; I bet they will be deep with BB reflection.

I think selling us the songs, preferably several times...  is kind of the point.

Sooo... I wonder how many outtakes this generated?

What would be the point of buying the regular CD as well as the deluxe edition?  And who would do that?

Probably completest collectors, especially if the two versions have different artwork of any sort. I'm sure there are a number of McCartney fans who bought these two:





Not to mention this:



and maybe even this:



and if you went to Target, this:



and then the Japan pressing:



and then the SECOND Japan pressing:



 LOL

I would hope Brian has more BB stuff in the back of his mind. But the press release makes it sound like he wanted to do another BB album, and when that didn't happen (which is understandably worded rather diplomatically), he just said fudge it and sculpted *that* into another solo album.

I wonder if that interesting song in the background of the "Doin' It Again" documentary will ever make it out. Some guessed/suggested that was the "I'll Go Anywhere" track.
