It's a singles collection..it'll keep selling. Wether it reaches number 1 or not doesn't really matter

Ha I'm not moaning about the DVD quality, given that I've been watching most of these on 'recorded of the telly' video for years. Only just realised that I'd never seen the beginning and end of most of them!

I feel like Luke Skywalker in Return Of The Jedi watching the Empire blowing up Rebellion ships from the Death Star by not being able to buy this album on the first week release.*

do yourself a fine favour and get the Forever Delayed DVD. still freely available, looking at most of the sites.

not only is it, going on reports, much better quality, it also doesn't have any version of Autumnsong on it. win-win, i believe the saying is.

It certainly looks that way! Thanks for the advice - I really probably should have bought that. Think it must've come out in my few Manics wilderness years when I mistakenly thought I was growing out of them haha.

No sign of the CD's in Belgium. I managed to hear Rock 'N Roll Genius though. My God, Nicky, just shut up, please

I listened to it for the first time, whilst stuck in traffic for two and a half hours. It was fun, I've not listened to the studio version of Masses, or There By The Grace Of God, for a long time.
