You're right. I think that was discussed in the thread on The Soldier. I had forgotten about that. I guess it could be just one disc.

Got this one earlier this week. Strange mix the short tracks I think are from three oclock high. Included is Choronzon, Cinammon Road, Cycle of Eternity. A few tracks fom EF's ages. And a couple of tracks I don't recognise. one of which doesn't sound like TD at all. As a whole the cd surprisingly holds together a good spread of music. I wouldn't rcommend paying for it though I paid £27.99 for it on the bay and like The Soldier is mostly flung together with just a little imagination.

I thought the same about the Soldier S/T.

Wasn't worth the money I paid. Would have looked for it in Russia had I known
TD would have got the same royalties from Russia as they no doubt did from the Orange Records CD

Wait till we get hammered import tax on the Japanese cds cliff. At least I hope that will be money well spent.

Yeah, there's been a conversation about that over on Facebook

If the online tax/import duty calculator is correct it will probably (hopefully ) be around £ 18.00 plus the post office fee which someone said was £ 13.50

I'd be happy with that (well, not happy, but I'd not feel too ripped off)

I also ended up buying the Metropolis CD

Who'd be a TD fan ?

And now that Baumann's back on board..... there goes some more ££££

And do I care ?.....nah, not a bit. Worth every penny....been part of my life since I was in my last teenage year (1979)

And hopefully will be until my final year... (not yet though )

Only ever ordered one TD album from Japan, and ended up with a bill for 379GBP. Someone in the customs department got the decimal point in the wrong place (Japanese Yen). I was advised by the post office that I could appeal, but, would have to pay the 379GBP up front, and, appeals were seldom successful. Needless to say I didn't take delivery. The item was returned to Japan after 3 weeks
