hollies65 Posted July 18, 2007 Report Share Posted July 18, 2007 Can someone post that Lennon in the Raspberries T-shirt?? I'd LOVE to post that at another forum I post at! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Raspbernie Posted July 18, 2007 Report Share Posted July 18, 2007 Can someone post that Lennon in the Raspberries T-shirt?? I'd LOVE to post that at another forum I post at! Don't you want the excitement of seeing it when you crack open the first Raspberries CD in 30+ years? I can't control what happens on other websites, but until this thing hits the streets I'm not going to spoil the fun and allow some of the cool things to be prematurely exposed here. Remember how cool it used to be when you'd buy a new album, slit the shrink wrap, pull out the vinyl and carefully read (and then re-read) all of the liner notes—inspecting and savoring every image and nuance to the packaging? Well, in a couple of short weeks those days'll be back…and it's called RASPBERRIES: LIVE ON SUNSET STRIP!Bernie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raspyrock Posted July 18, 2007 Report Share Posted July 18, 2007 I want to see that too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raspbernie Posted July 18, 2007 Report Share Posted July 18, 2007 By the way, it is a GREAT review! I wish "Jim Bonfanti" was spelled correctly and the title of the release—LIVE ON SUNSET STRIP—was consistent throughout the review. Also, the link to the CD cover image seems to be wrong—all I'm seeing is a "?" inside a blank box. Maybe those things can be patched?Bernie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leff'tHome Posted July 18, 2007 Report Share Posted July 18, 2007 Ahhh, those were the days, Bernie. And yes, I AM willing to wait. But it better be soon... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AnneG Posted July 18, 2007 Report Share Posted July 18, 2007 Egads, it's going to be tough enough to filter out the Harry Potter spoilers --now this??! Thanks for the unexpected insight into the great package. 7/31 won't get here fast enough!!!Anne Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chew Foil Posted July 19, 2007 Author Report Share Posted July 19, 2007 Im expecting to have the review re-edited tonight. I actually went to a web site and lifted Jim's name as I had left the cd in my car! No offense was meant! I didnt expect the review to go up so soon as it did. But was excited to for myself! Didnt mean to spoil anything. And damn it. I cant find any of the Harry Potter spoilers on line. Can anyone help? I will be reading the book this weekend!

Raspbernie Posted July 19, 2007 Report Share Posted July 19, 2007 Hey Jim,You didn't spoil anything. I just didn't want folks here posting the Lennon pic or Bruce's comments before they get to see them in context. It's quite something—and worth waiting for!Bernie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trindy Posted July 19, 2007 Report Share Posted July 19, 2007 I know this is a dumb question but...are the special editions shipping earlier or was that just a "hope" that is not going to come true, and now we all have to wait until 7/31 just to get ours shipped??

Eric Carmen Posted July 19, 2007 Report Share Posted July 19, 2007 I don't know if they've been shipped yet, but we signed all 300 of 'em last Sunday. It was a lovely sunny day and we all went to Al's house and sat on the back deck and signed every last one of them. Al took a photo of us standing next to the stack of CD's afterwards. I'm sure he'll put it up on the 'Berries site soon. We had to take the shrink wrap off each one in order to sign them. I believe the plan was to have them all shrink wrapped again before we shipped them to you. We wanted them to be perfect when you received them.So, I guess the answer is "The glass is half full." ec Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don_Krider Posted July 19, 2007 Report Share Posted July 19, 2007 Guess I'll toss my review into the mix (it's long, it's detailed, and I held off on publishing it for a week so as not to give some things away, but I finally decided what the heck) --- please note, that during the first 24 hours after publication, the review may only be available for view by members of Epinions.Com (free membership), but after that time it should be visible without joining the site: http://www.epinions.com/content_393207123588 Don Krider http://www.epinions.com/user-don_krider Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
