    Currently this beauty is being mishandled by the ruffians at the FedEx facility in Stansted, GB, where there is an Operational Delay. I really don't care about atmospheric rivers, Bomb Cyclones, riots, strikes, COVID, supply chain issues, or NOTAM being down. This is FedEx, for when it absolutely, positively has to be there. This is prog.

    You could develop some muscles by fondling that box set.

    It's a CD preorder, but an mp3 download of the whole album.

    Is the MP3 download available now, or is that pre-order too?

    I finally ordered a copy of PT's Closure/Continuation. I went for the deluxe edition even though it's terribly overpriced, because it looks pretty fondletastic. While I was at it I plugged two other holes in my PT collection (I'm not really a PT completist) - Arriving Somewhere (never seen it before, though I saw PT on that tour), and Coma Divine (the 2CD reissue from 2021).

    MP3 comes with the pre order, not separately. Not to be picky, but why would you want a 44kh 320kbps version as your 'keeper'?

    Received today from CDJapan:

    Kumorigahara / Kumorigahara
    First read about them here at PE, listened to them on YouTube and decided to buy the CD. The CD is really good, I especially like tracks 3, 5 and 8.
    ESTRUCTURA / Mas Alla De Tu Mente [SHM-CD] [Cardboard Sleeve (mini LP)]
    Venezuelan prog band, their 1st album (of two) from 1978
    Kenso / Yume no Oka
    An old friend, buying it for the second time, as the first CD is long gone. Now I only need Kenso II (which is their best, imo)

    And before that several CDs as individual items.

    I only got into Focus a few years ago. I've had scattered individual CDs, but was more than happy to get this box. The 'Hocus Pocus' box looks amazing!

    But I prefer the 50 Years box. The Hocus Pocus box just add some later stuff.
