Can't say I'm particularly thrilled for this release, but it's good to see the announcement.
By the way, a digital release has been confirmed.
It's mentioned on Classic Pop Magazine's website, and the tracks are available for preorder on platforms such as iTunes and Amazon. It's the 2 disc set, the 8 songs followed by the instrumentals. Track durations yet to be listed.
I'm glad they're doing the Blu-Ray release in Dolby Atmos, that's cool.
SuperDeluxeEdition are claiming to have an exclusive slipcase with the Blu-Ray, but the fineprint reveals it's the same "exclusive" slipcase as the official website. So it isn't exclusive, funny enough. (SDE & D2C exclusive slipcase)
There are mentioning OS site now on SDE.
It will be released on vinyl, as a 2CD set and on blu-ray audio. SDE has an exclusive version of the blu-ray which comes with a special slipcase (shared with the PSB’s store).

Well I had to make a decision - I went for the Blu Ray audio - hoping I can rip the audio from that!! Also got the ltd green and orange vinyl! Woohoo!!

So..are we agreed then that this is a Tennant/Lowe (Hodges) album rather than a PSB album? Tennant/Lowe/Hodges gets the priority credit so I think it is! It’s kind of formatted like Battleship Potemkin with the artist name first (Tennant/Lowe) then the sub-text showing who the performers are..in this case PSB, Juliet Stevenson and Manchester Camerata, then the orchestrator Sven Helbig.
Is the bluray exclusive for the PSB store and the SDE store (with slipcase)?
Preferrably I would other from neither due to high shipping, customs etc but through the regular sellers (amazon, JPC), but it appears they have only the CD and LP versions listed.

So. 1cd. 2cd. 1lp. 2lp. Blu-ray. T-shirt.
The second cd/lp is the instrumental versions and exclusive on the blu ray is a “no narration” version.
T shirt actually looks interesting.
Where did you find a T-shirt?

On the blu ray there is No Narration versions of the tracks.
What makes these different from the standard versions and the instrumental?
I have absolutely no idea and I think if we all knew, we would better decide which version of this album we Walt to get.
Has it actually been confirmed anywhere if the Blu-ray contains just stereo audio, or surround sound versions. I don't have a surround system, so not massively worried, but am wondering if I'll need to buy the Blu-ray and the CD if I want to get a stereo versions?

Well, that’s my special 2xLP and 2xCD pre-ordered, then!
Yeah me too !
But I've been redirected to the U.S. store although I'm buying from France.
Does the web address of the store has changed lately ?
I usually do login when ordering and for that pre order it was not possible.
I also noted the shipping costs have changed : 10€ for France, which is a lot cheaper than my previous orders.

Thank you.
