According to an email from HMV my copy of POB has been dispatched already. Is this possible - I didn't think it was released until the 16th?

I'm not sure about HMV specifically, but some online retailers will ship items as soon as they receive their stock, so often times you receive your item on or even slightly before street date.  So yes, it is possible that your copy is on its way to you, lucky dog!

"Because of the attitude of a few mental dinosaurs intent on exploiting our initial success, Brian's huge talent has never been fully appreciated in America and the potential of the group has been stifled.... If the Beatles had suffered this kind of misrepresentation, they would have never got past singing 'Please Please Me' and 'I Wanna Hold Your Hand' and leaping around in Beatle suits."

Hey that's great! I specified free shipping though so I'd be surprised if it arrives before the 16th. If it does I'll be sure to gloat like a big fat lucky dog!!

I'm Dutch too. Are you sure of that? Would be really cool.

Did you order your copy online or are you planning to go to a record shop tomorrow?

I've been told that Kroese will have it in tomorrow, so if there's one of those near you, you should be in luck.  Smiley 20 euros for the CD.

If you go in the morning, be sure to ask. They seem to have a habit of not putting the new releases out while after lunch.

I ordered my copies of both the 2cd and 3LP at KingKong Records (Leeuwarden). CD costs €20,- the 3LP €36 something. So that 50 Euro's is a pure rip-off...


EDIT: and my seller also told me the CD arrives Friday the 13th. The vinyl version at around June 30th.

Down here in Australia I have left it to the last to see if it will be released locally - checked with a few stores last week and nobody knows anything about it, trolling the net I have found out that the Sony Legacy series has not be released here and has to be specially ordered on USA import.

Off to Amazon I go!!

Just got my copy.  Grin €17.99 at Kroese in Arnhem. They seemed to have quite a few copies back there, but I had to ask for it.

Hope you guys have been as lucky.

Hmmm... When I asked the guy behind the counter to order it, I looked on his screen with him and that was actually the price on his wholesale price list... So I know he wasn't ripping me off... But maybe he should look for a different distributor then...

Got it as well. The seller had ordered 4 copies: one for me, one for himself  Grin , and 2 for the shop. Checked the other recordstores in town as well, no-one's selling them.

And now a few more hours to go before I get home and give it a listen...

Got mine today: it's in the shops in Holland. And what a beauty it is. Imagine Only With You on the Holland album. The album would have sold far better. And what about Tug Of Love. It's better than anything the Beach Boys did around those days. The songs sound so clear, you'll hear things you never heard before. And I thought Christmas comes only once a year.
