Also out this week: the single of Tutti Frutti, my favourite track off New Order’s Music Complete album, available on CD single and 12″.
Ordered the Staple Singers box on Monday from Amazon Canada, arrived today via DHL Express, despite 6 to 8 weeks being quoted on the order. CC charged at £19.60, so very impressed.
From a brief look over, it appears to be a great set with excellent sound. Not sure about the packaging though, the CDs are an extremely tight fit in the sleeves.
Unfortunately, it seems to be currently out of stock, but still the same price.
That Staples in particular has me excited, but lots of other treats on offer here!
Thanks AndyP that is a brilliant price for this set. £24 saving on the UK site.
Pretty sure the Badly Drawn boy was pushed back. At least in America where my shipping estimate changed to late January.
Good price on the Staple Singers set from Amazon Canada, works out at around £20 including shipping.
You can order the Unthanks CD from their website for £10 (+£1.25 postage). Cheaper than Amazon and more beneficial to the band.
