Ordered this afternoon both the double cd and notebook but did not received a confirmation email. Anyone else with who has the same problem?
My confirmation email took an hour to arrive.

At some point after the release - maybe next spring now I shall lay in the same fields as Turing did and listen to this...
This is so lovely!
I am literally crying over how moving this will be for you!
Thank you for posting!
Thank you!
I'll raise a glass or two to Alan.

Anywhere here found a EU based store to order the Man From The Future bluray?

I'm assuming the "green/orange" colour scheme on the cover is tied to early monochrome computer monitors.In the 1970s and 1980s, before full-color displays existed, computer screens were entirely text-based. They used monochrome cathode-ray tubes (CRTs) that displayed text in only one color against a black background. The two most popular and iconic colors for these displays were phosphor green and amber (orange).Beyond that, the combination is also used in modern tech for:Networking: Orange fiber optic cables often pair with green connectors to indicate specific hardware standards.Interface Design: Digital interfaces frequently use green for "success/go" actions and orange for "warnings."

What does everyone think?
PSB/Farrow wont have chosen those colours by accident. I suspect you're right with this assessment or something along these lines.

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?
The store is a bit of a minefield depending on country.
You have to ensure the shop currency is United Kingdom GBP. Then the extra goodies appear.

Sadly the book doesn't seem to ship to Canada irrespective but the T shirt does.
Bon chance!

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.
Yes and I speak on behalf of all fans....
The way its laid out on the package definitely suggests:
Composer - Tennant/Lowe/Hodges
Performed by - Pet Shop Boys/Juliette Stevenson/Manchester Camerata
It's without doubt in the same family as TMIT and BP

And also, Neil has made it very clear in interviews that all proper PSB album titles will only be one word.
