I agree it’s hard to come up with three favorite tracks - the album is really good imo.
interesting choice of tracks, somuch23 by the way. And welcome

You cannot rip the inside mixes (at least not easily). They are intended to be played back in a home cinema system with at least 5.1 option.

Yes, another great track. Good to hear there will be another record as well, but who knows when! "Hope to see you around soon" are part of the last line in the Full Moon Update, we shall see!

he mentioned something like this earlier - taking a break for 6 month and then continue with the releases of new songs. So obviously he thinks he's got enough for another album.

I have added Live And Let Live to this poll, which is now complete!

First impression (Bright SIde Mix)

It's the finale I wanted for i/o. In my opinion, it's the best track on the album and a highlight of his oeuvre. He gives the album a grand finale and he gives the song itself a grand finale - something the fantastic Four Kinds Of Horses somehow lacked ....

The messages are clear and simply up to date ....

lay the burden down, lay the weapons down

it takes courage to start to forgive

to be brave enough to listen, to live and let live

yeah yeah yeah

Martin Luther King is mentioned, the Elders ...

and it's the only real fade-out. And rarely has it been so fitting!

It's a goosebump moment for me, which he had already teased in the concert ...

in addition to that, this was the fan club and what it offered

Quote from Jonathan Dann

Just to mention that the Expanded and Re-mastered Edition of Gypsy Suite is a single CD.

There is currently nothing to report about a re-release of Tarka.

The Tarka demos on the Gypsy Suite CD are of course the same tracks that were first included on the original 1995 release, with the addition on the new edition of the previously unreleased demo of Movement III.

Thanks! I have corrected the news accordingly.

The ANTHONY PHILLIPS and HARRY WILLIAMSON album Gypsy Suite will be re-released on CD (remastered and expanded) on 23 February. It also contains the Tarka demos again plus a previously unreleased demo.

Question to Jonathan Dann

I wonder if there are plans for an expanded TARKA album? No that we get the demos with this expanded edition of Gypsy Suite, it could also have been a common boxset with both albums? Can give us some insights in the release plans here? Thanks

A new Roachford album is coming

Then And Now is a collection of new tracks and revisited old classics - so in some ways it's reminds us of "Out Of The Blue"

Quote from Thelawnmower

Indeed, Christian, I know you will not want to say much until you do a proper review, but can you say if your advance copy of the album is a physical one and, if so, is there more artwork than just the cover picture? Is all the artwork by the same artist?

Thanks

physical promo copies are something from the past. I haven't seen those for quite some time. Usually you'll get a digital press kit with bio, cover, photos and the album with a suggested press text (that's why nearly all of them sound the same). I only have the cover. Both cover and titles were clear to me prior to the official announcement. I wasn't allowed to reveal any of that before the 16 November.
