Ordered!
Hope it was not a mistake. This is my favorite BBT record and I really want a physical copy.
I doubt it's a mistake as it seems several have already ordered according to the post on the BBT Forum, so if there was any issue I'm sure they would've said so by now. My best guess is that they found a small stock of the albums in their warehouse and are trying to get rid of them. I do have to wonder if it'll be a part of the eventual re-release campaign of their back catalog, and just how recent the re-releases will go. I can't imagine they'll re-release anything from
Grand Tour onwards since those are still fairly easily to get, and even
Grimspound is also still available at Burning Shed and The Band Wagon USA. Pretty much anything from
Folklore back could use a re-issue, except
The Underfall Yard which already had a remaster/remix re-release a couple years ago.
And of course, I'm still waiting for the
Bard remaster/remix/re-release as it's the only studio album of theirs I don't own. The big question is, of course, will I be willing to double-dip on their re-issues? Perhaps
English Electric Full Power if it's the 2016 remaster, which I never got on CD, but unless the older albums come with bonus tracks or have lavish packaging, I'm not sure I'll buy any of them again (although that hasn't stopped me from owning doubles and triples of BBT albums before
).
