I was thinking/hoping for a 1966 soundboard of The Who, but I'd easily 'settle' for a prime jeff Beck-era yardbirds soundboard!
Soooooo, I just ordered this. Used my broken high school French to navigate. Maybe I'll get it? No shipping charge. I did receive a confirmation. Ha.
Ooh, yes, we could certainly do with one of those. No shipping charge for me, either. But I got an order confirmation too (awaiting validation, though), so... I still think it's a bit odd there's no shipping charge, but I'm not complaining either. Did anyone else have trouble getting the Paypal button to work? I had to pay by card in the end which is something I don't really like doing over t'internet. I fully expect the shipping might still get slapped on my card at the end, though. I'll be keeping a close eye on my emails for the next few days.
Not to go off-topic everyone, but is the sound of the Decca box that appreciably different from the DE's. The only Decca album I have so far is the DE of the first album, and I found it to be a very harsh listen. Is the clarity of the box that much different? Mark
As I said in the dedicated thread for The Decca Years, the mastering is the sole reason to get the box. Superior to the Deluxes of the two albums by leaps and bounds.
This I should where I ordered from: Maison d'édition Les Presses du Midi à Toulon (Var) - Maison d'édition Les Presses du Midi à Toulon (Var) - Smalls de Jean-Noël Coghe
Just a FYI, a few of us are having issues with this, not receiving postage/delivery notices when earlier orders did or confirmation of payment received despite the money going out of the account
Bibliographie, meilleurs livres sur le rock des annees 60-70 I emailed the publisher who confirmed the book comes with 2 CDs. I also have yet to be charged postage.
Thanks for this Marc! Here's a web translation of that page into English: memoire60-70.be/Livres_DVD_Rock/Smalls_Jean_Noel_Coghe.html - Translator
Apologies, i meant that some who ordered this earlier received an estimated delivery notice from the publisher, I ordered on the 23rd but have heard nowt from them since
Ah, ok. I will try and call them in the morning and find out what is going on. I only ordered today but found it strange that there were no shipping charges. I'll let you know how I get on.
For anyone wishing to order the "Smalls" book/CD from the French site Les Presses du Midi, here's a web translated version of the site in Jolly Ye Olde English, with cheers n fish n chips to you: www.lespressesdumidi.fr/livres/lespressesdumidi/product/5372-smalls-de-jean-noel-coghe.html - Translator
I'd love to hear from anyone else in the States who placed an order for this. My confirmation email has a French address under billing info, yet my CC has been charged. Hmmmmm. I have sent an email, but curious to see how this all plays out. Good luck all!!
"Between 1965 and 1968, The Small Faces, it's 30 million records sold, 35 gold, 46 silver discs". Wow,Small Faces were far bigger than I thought! Ahh those French............
