Not got my shipping conf for the records yet... I haven't either. I'm sure there's nothing to worry about though! Hopefully I can make it through the weekend if it doesn't arrive tomorrow.

Thankfully I've already had the CD version for a little while, but I buggered up my vinyl order by snagging 2 copies before I noticed it was 1 per customer... LITA said that this was OK, but would be happier to know it was on its way. Will be even happier if it gets here without Customs charges, but that's for a later date

My yellow vinyl box set just arrived. The vinyl color is more marbled yellow than just yellow, a nice plus. As said already, the box set is gorgeous with some great photos and handwritten lyrics by Mark. This is such a nice treat after a long week of work, time to take it easy crack open a beer and listen to this thing. Sweet, been a hellish work week here, too, and my order is scheduled to arrive tomorrow. Pretty exciting, can't wait to hear those unreleased tunes!

Just got my CDs in the mail! Outstanding compilation, really digging the unreleased stuff. A lot to digest right now.

My CD arrived today, vinyl will be here next week. Still soaking it all in, the tracklist is quite something, even the order of the unreleased songs. Again still absorbing the "new" stuff, but I have to say To Valencia Courthouse is fucking gorgeous. Stunning.
Also, can't believe we're just now hearing the vocal version of Blues For D, great stuff.

It's a beautiful package, especially the vinyl box, now that I can actually examine it "in the flesh" as it were I almost feel like it's under priced - like Raeni, I had to take some time just to look at it all (and recognize a certain deserving name in the credits). The unreleased tracks do mostly have an unfinished feeling, which I'd expected and don't mind. It's too soon to really pick through them, I'm still digesting them. I especially like the sort of "interactive" aspect of the handwritten lyrics, instead of just reading the lyrics to figure out what he's singing, I have to listen to parts of some of the songs to figure out the handwriting! There should be a Part II Anthology, really, though, so much was left out, especially of the harder, more "rockin'" songs. And while I'm dreaming, a Part III (probably a Part IV, too) for the collaborations and band material. I am content with what we have, though - I can hand these records to anyone and say, "Listen to this, this will show you why I love this artist so much" and feel they're getting a complete picture. That there are several "sonic" pictures to be made of Mark Lanegan's work only speaks to his immense talent.

Was Harborview Hospital just a promotional single? I notice there's a picture of it in the booklet next to the other singles.

Just a promo CD, can't remember exactly when as there's no info with the one I have - usually, there's a little plug for something that comes with it (tour dates, press release) but this one's just the colour-printed cover sheet and a disc. They appear on ebay fairly regularly, but other than the artwork and a completist perspective it's not worth paying more than a couple of bucks for.

We have a frame with the covers of Blues Funeral and the Gravedigger's 7", both signed. I got the Harborview Hospital CD just because it seemed like the completion of a trio, with the similar but different covers. We hope to get ours signed and add it to the frame, for completion's sake.

I got my shipping notice last week and it's still not here. I've been checking the tracking info every 12 hours, because I'm a freak. (I'm thinking it might arrive tonight, of course, because I'm stuck working late.) I haven't broken down yet to listen to the new tracks but I might not last much longer!

My copy was in the mail when got home last night. Broke out the cd disc man to listen to on subway to/ fro work today. Definitely interesting to hear Blues for D with lyrics after years of listening to it without

I'm getting pissed, it's been a week since it should have been shipped and still no word from Light in the Attic. They haven't responded to my email either. Once again I should have just bought it off amazon if I wanted it as soon as possible.

Wow!!! Just got the yellow vinyl and played side 1...first 3 songs put the Bubblegum pressing to shame and Mirrored just sounds incredible. Dead quiet pressing, amazing sonics, first rate packaging and artwork...LITA really knocked it out of the park on this one; an absolute bargain...gotta get back to side 2
