It's the special-only-available-from-the-band's-website 2CD version of their last album, "Marbles"....
I thought it was from 2005 but it came out in 2004. I can't believe I sat around waiting for two years till I found a copy at a good price for music I'm obviously going to love...
It rocks and it is recommended...
You canstill get it knock down for the rest of March at www.marillion.com and it'll be worth every penny - unlike the big price they normally charge...
Man, I'm such a cheapskate...
A HUGE thrill for me today as I found an e-mail in my inbox from Dave Bidini, of one of my all time favourite bands, Rheostatics (www.rheostatics.ca)...
In a gushing fan-boy reply, I have to advise him that Reptile Records is no more and thank him for his offer of a free CD but I have all the Rheo's CDs proudly on my shelf already...
It's good to know a hero is tuning into my glamorous and glitzy diary of the boring life of a musician and artist....
Until the new Marillion CD hit the mat, I'd been listening to Rheostatics all day...
I love their music..
Here're a couple of exerpts from my response...
"Your complex and often beautiful music never ceases to amaze me and I try at every opportunity to spread the word about Rheostatics."
"All the very best to you and the rest of the band - and keep on making your BRILLIANT music!!"
This is not going overboard...
Believe me...
