Does anyone know if John is selling his Suspended Animation cd on the G3 tour this year? I believe it's out of print, but maybe he has his own stash that he's had and is unloading it at the merch stand.
ETA: There are a ton being offered on Ebay, but I believe they're all Russian knockoffs. The album listing at discogs.com would indicate that the official, original CD has art on the CD itself that looks to be a mixture of purple and green, while the Russian boots have CD art that is either all purple or all green. Discogs could be wrong, of course (since it's user-generated), but I'm adding this info in case anyone here has some insight. I would just really prefer to have a "real" version, which is why I'm asking (in the event John doesn't have them for sale, and I look elsewhere... obviously, I'd trust John's versions, hah).
EDIT BY BOSK1: YES, HE IS SELLING THEM NOW. SEE POST BELOW.
-
No.
He is selling a scarf, JP pick with tin container and 2 shirts. I believe the shirts were $35 and $40, the scarf was $40 I believe and the pick set was $15.
-
Haha now I can imagine John at the Merc stand himself selling shirts and burgers before and after the show that will be something.
-
Last year I found, according to Discogs, a Russian bootleg with purple CD art in a local store. I bought it straight away and, honestly, I'm not even slightly bothered by the possibility of it not being official. I've been looking for this album since it was released (I had pretty much no clue (nor money) whatsoever as to how online shopping worked back then) and, hadn't you brought this thread up, I would never even guess anything like that. The CD works just fine, the music plays perfectly and all the artwork is flawless, so it totally passes as a legit copy to whoever sees it without knowing any of that.
If you can bypass the necessity of having an undeniably official product (which I'd like to as well, but given the circumstances…) and just want a physical version, feel free to grab one of those eBay copies with no remorse. If that's not the case… well, then good luck!

That's good to know. I bought one when if came out and I guessed it's been out of print now. Unfortunately I can't remember where I got it. But the one I have is all purple (No green anywhere.)
I generally try to avoid knockoffs/CDRs, but that's just me. I'm into the original/authenticity aspect of it.

THere's two versions of Suspended Animation:
-The 1st pressing had Curve split into two tracks I believe (please correct me if I'm wrong).
-The 2nd pressing corrected the issue above.
I got it from JP's website store. I believe I have both pressings. I did get signed one of them at a JP Guitar Center meet and greet a while back.

Yeah I can confirm about the first pressing. My version of SA has Curve split into two tracks.
-
It is not being sold at the merch stands on G3. I believe it is out of print, and that anyone who doesn't have it is out of luck. As I have mentioned in other threads, I wouldn't buy the Russian knockoffs on Ebay. Not very cool to let some pirate pocket money for something they have no right to. But the dilemma is that there doesn't appear to be any legit way to get that album right now. I meant to ask JP about that at G3, but didn't get to it. I just sent him an email this morning, so I will let you guys know if I hear anything.
-
I bought some CDs from discogs.com and the person made no comments whatsoever about them being Russian bootlegs... turned out they were, and then he got pissed at ME when I left him negative feedback! Russian bootlegs suck.
What sucks even more though is that the damn album is OOP but JP wants to sell scarves instead. Come on! I want SA sitting there with my other CDs... the "J" section of my collection needs all the help it can get... Thanks for messaging JP bosk. Would be nice if some more were printed...
-
I'm actually surprised he isn't selling it on tour. Not sure what the process is to get another run of the album produced, but I'm assuming he could even though it's currently out of print as the owner of the music. Seems like it would have been worth while to order a run of a couple hundred CDs and have them on the tour, he would have sold a bunch probably.
Just realized it isn't on Spotify either. That surprises me, JP is pretty savvy on the business-side of things, I would have thought he would have the album available on streaming platforms. Open a new revenue stream.

I know this is touchy on the rules but this is the perfect example of when piracy is acceptable imo. In fact, that's literally the only way I've ever even heard Suspended Animation. PRINT MORE COPIES!!

Which is why I'm surprised John hasn't put the album up on legit streaming services like Spotify, Apple Music, etc... At least that way, he'll see some money from it, not much, but better than people just illegally downloading it.

That's exactly why I don't regret having a Russian knockoff in this case. I'll still definitely buy an original copy if JP ever prints them again.
-
Been considering getting the Russian bootleg. A lot of those are nearly identical to the real thing. Actually just ordered a Russian bootleg of something called Giuntini Project because the debut album is IMPOSSIBLE to find, at least for less than 120 bucks, and even then you can't guarantee that it's not a bootleg.
Finally found a Russian copy for 15 bucks including shipping.
-
JP told me he had found a few copies of the disk stashed at home and meant to bring them on the tour, but hadn't dug them out and forgot. He now has them and will make them available at the shows. And he is signing them as an added bonus. As far as I know, these are the only official copies available anywhere, so get 'em while you can!
-
Even that sounds like a stop gap measure.
Wouldn't part with it, because I love the album, but it makes me wonder what my signed copy would be worth.
-
Would love to get my hands on a signed copy. Would anybody be willing to get one for me?
-
Even that sounds like a stop gap measure.
I have no idea what this means.
-
I hope they last the week. I'd like to get one at the Boston show.
-
Even that sounds like a stop gap measure.
I have no idea what this means.
I mean, how many copies can he have stashed at home? Just wondering how many shows they'll last.
I'm just kinda surprised that he wouldn't print more of his only album prior to doing a tour like this, just seems odd.

I would think you know enough about the music industry to know that it's probably not up to him to print more.

Actually, the album was released on Sound Mind Music, which is a label founded by John and Rayna Petrucci, so in this case I'd think he's pretty much in the driver's seat.
-
Not necessarily. I wouldn't just assume that.
-
Great! Baby steps, I suppose. But I certainly hope he gets around to getting more physically printed. That artwork is gorgeous and I want it on my shelves. Right between the Joe Satriani and Jordan Rudess records. :)
-
Even though he and Rena may have created the label that it was co-released on, I have no idea whether they own the music and/or distribution rights. But even if they do, when you think about it, there probably really isn't much demand for the album. Maybe a few hundred copies would get sold? I'm not sure that would justify another production run, even if some of those few hundred REALLY want the album. It's not like they would just be burning a few copies at a time on their home computer. But who knows? The point is, at least JP recognized that some fans on this tour would like to buy it, and he is responding to that the best way he can.

I do think JP owns the music and distribution rights but you are spot on on the demand. The more copies you press, you get better deals for pressing costs. Not really sure if JP can sell 1000 but he can easily sell 100. It's a matter of finding the closest balance but I don't think there has been much demand throughout the years after it was initially released. Once JP records and releases his 2nd solo album (whenever that happens), a 2nd pressing of Suspended Animation is more justified and has a better chance of happening..
I didn't see Phil Collen stock up cds on the merch stand either and he announced that his latest solo album had been released the day before he played Austin. So either he wasn't expecting for fans to pick up his album after playing or he didn't have stock available. I think Satch was the only one selling his latest album.

Here's the problem though. Piracy is illegal, flat-out: but if you can't obtain the freaking CD in the first place, and it's not even on streaming sites, what other option is there? I totally understand the argument for not making more copies, buuut... is the 'correct' solution to just not try to find the art? I would love to give him money for it. I am dying to do so. But I can't unless someone here wants to pick me up a copy... :biggrin:

Same here. If he sold it through his website I would spend up to 25 bucks just knowing it went to the actual artist instead of a bootlegger. Maybe it's not worth it to him. Maybe Bosk could send an email to him and ask if he could sell them personally to forumers who have expressed an interest.
Maybe.

I like that idea. It would be better if people who actually go to the shows tell the Merch guy or better yet, if they can, Petrucci himself, why doesn't he have cds for sale. That in itself could show an interest in the CD.
-
So other than the album (which i already have) do they sell JP shirts ???
-
I think I turned off e-mail notifications for this once someone said JP wasn't selling the cd at shows, so WOW at how it blew up! Thanks to all who chimed in.
Anyway, John had the cd at the Greensburg (Pittsburgh) show!!! To my pleasant surprise, obv!
Snatched it right up. Figured it couldn't get more legit than buying directly from him!!! (Though, to be fair, I once saw Joey Belladonna from Anthrax selling CDr's of his solo albums once at an '08 solo show during his time away from the band)
But anyway, came to the forum to post that when I load the cd into my computer, the automatic info or whatever actually reveals some song title changes
"Lost Without You" comes up as "The Rena Song" and "Animate-Inanimate" comes up as "In the Moment."
Very odd, b/c the only way this is possible if there is an official entry in whatever the player references that has this info in it. And since the album has long since been out of print, why would there be a change in whatever is floating out there on the interwebz?
I know it's not unprecedented (seeing as how John is now calling Cloud Ten "The Happy Song"), but for an OOP album from 13 years ago to get new song titles registered out there in the ether is certainly a headscratcher.
ETA: The "contributing artists" for the entire CD are listed as "John Petrucci, Jordan Rudess," so... ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Strange, but is the database that your computer used from an official place? Because The Rena Song is actually an acoustic guitar piece JP played *before* Lost Without You on the Waking Up the World Tour back in 1995. In the Moment is the title of one of the songs JP and JR did together on their album An Evening with John Petrucci and Jordan Rudess. Plus the fact that JR is included in the credits, when he had nothing to do with SA, shows that someone didn't know what they were doing when entering in the credits, or they were screwing around when they shouldn't have.
-
How much is the cd? Anybody going to one if these shows wanna pick me up a copy and I'll pay ya back extra.

Looks like Windows Media Player is referencing this: https://tinylink.net/Le0lZ . And when I take a closer look at that entry (vs. what's automatically loaded when I insert the CD), it actually reveals yet another incorrect title: Black Ice.
So I have no clue where the site is getting its data from, but there ya go.
-
Couple thoughts:
- the album is excellent; I'm glad people can perhaps get it.
- In my experience, eBay is the place you have to watch out for in terms of Russian boots. Sellers aren't always up front about that (and I truly believe some don't even know; though I have run across the odd guy that did and swapped out a "boot" for a real one when I complained)
- Discogs is pretty good; yes, it's user maintained, but it catalogues ALL releases of a given disc (even re-releases and second pressings, if there are differences), and some of those people are anal AF, and I've seen cases where the Russian boot actually gets it's own entry!
- It can be his label and yet he can't release it; just by way of example, either the publishing deal he cut or the distribution deal he cut (it's his label but he needs someone to put it in boxes and get it into stores) could limit his ability to press new ones and release.
- Depending on where you are listening to the disk, the information may be from the disk itself, or it may be automatically pulled from an online database (I believe iTunes does this). CDBD or CBGB or some thing like that. So changes may not be on the disk itself but in the database.
- the album is excellent; I'm glad people can perhaps get it. :)

Just curious, was it ever in stores? I remember when I bought it, it was only for sale from his website. Not my favourite instrumental album, just think some songs go on too long (similar to my feelings on Stream Of Consciousness) but still enjoy plenty of stuff on there. Tend to go to LTE for JP instrumental music though (and I know there's some long songs there too but they seem less repetitive and work better for me!). Difficult to beat Satriani for purely guitar instrumental music though.
-
If memory serves, I believe it was only ever available online. For some reason, I recall it being released through Steve Vai's label (Favored Nations). I can't find anything about that now. Maybe I'm wrong.
It's a good album. Some songs are a bit long or too repetitive. Particularly "Curve". It starts off pretty cool but after a while, it doesn't really go anywhere. I do hope on future G3 tours (or wherever the opportunity may arise) he brings out the two songs that haven't been played yet.

Suspended Animation was released through John's website.
The Favored Nations release you are talking about was the John Petrucci and Jordan Rudess "An Evening With". It was originally released through JP's website (and had a black and white cover with bricks) and then Favored Nations released it with two extra tracks I believe, which had like a half guitar/half piano keys cover.

Yup. Believe it or not I actually found the Favored Nations version in a Best Buy many years ago. Couldn't believe it!

Somewhat surprised at this thread, I always had the impression people were decidedly "meh" about the album. I absolutely love the album, I really hope the G3 tour spurs on JP to release the sequel.

I feel the same. SA was awesome and I'd love to see another solo record from JP, even an EP.

Can't speak for anyone else, but I had actually never heard the entire thing until fairly recently. I just find it hard to get into instrumental-only albums. I like songs with long instrumental passages, like what you will find in the typical DT epic. And I can often enjoy the odd instrumental song from a given band that I like. But as far as entire albums, I'm not sure why, but I just generally don't connect with them. A few VERY rare exceptions I can point to would be: Passion and Warfare (Steve Vai), Shift (Travis Larson Band), and the two LTE albums. I can definitely put Suspended Animation up there with those. It's a very good album, and it holds my interest.
-
Shift (Travis Larson Band).
Have you seen the TLB band live? A bliss to see them.
-
Shift (Travis Larson Band).

Yes. They play in Sacramento at least once a year. Prior to NAMM each year, they like to do a string of warm-up gigs in CA that always includes a show at a tiny place here called Shine that holds maybe 100 people. It's cool getting to see them up close and getting to talk to them afterward (although fighting through the crowd of guys trying to hit on Jennifer to say "good gig! you are amazing!" usually isn't worth it).

Yeah, they surprised me when they opened for The Aristocrats. Top notch playing and very melodical. Jen is awesome but the whole band is really down to Earth and great guys to chat.

I'm with ya, bosk - instrumental albums, actually guitar-centric instrumental albums, rub me the wrong way, I usually can't stand them. I have 3 Satch albums and get bored about two songs into all of them (although Always With Me, Always With You is a classic). Suspended Animation is just solid songwriting. Wishful Thinking... Glasgow Kiss... that amazing groove to Tunnel Vision... :hefdaddy
-
Ok, physical pressings and copies aside, how is it possible that it's not even available on iTunes or any other digital format?
I'd love to know why since this seems like a no-brainer. If Jordan Rudess can have his stuff on iTunes why not JP? I really don't get this cuz compared to making more physical copies it's EZPZ and everyone is a winner for doing almost nothing.
-
Guess I don't need to go to G3 after all, a friend surprised me by mailing me a copy of SA :lol :metal
-
Phil Collen will be disappointed by your absence.
-
Phil Collen will have to pay me to go at this point. :lol
-
Phil will not long tolerate your insolence.

For the record (heh), I did not see any copies of JP's album at the Chicago show for sale. In fact, what little they did have on sale had to be the SMALLEST amount of merchandise I have ever seen in my life. The only copies I saw were the ones people brought in to get signed. One guy had an entire clear large Ziploc bag full of CDs, for all 3 artists.
