    I pre-ordered earlier today. Wasn’t happy about the $6.99 shipping, but went ahead.

    Last year's Rhino record Store Day only Grateful Dead CD Set showed up at Amazon UK pretty cheap right after RSD.

    This isn't an RSD release, its not available in any physical stores.

    My bad. It would potentially be true for the other 2 Bowie RSD releases.

    Sorry, I'm currently not thinking; due to a blown up Oppo last night that is going to have a significant delay repair per Oppo due to Corona.

    Looks like I missed out on this one. Is it available anywhere on the UK?

    I only had confirmation of dispatch from Rhino today.
    I say only because I’ve seen other people report theirs was dispatched last week.

    Got mine today.
    Not got around to playing it yet.
    Artwork has a kind of velvety feel.

    Thanks. I got a credit card statement today showing a charge on Feb. 18.

    Never got a confirmation email (that I can find).

    Was wondering if anyone got their order(s). I opted for CD only.

    Still waiting for my CD order to the UK. Ordered from the official store (fulfilled by Music Glue). Status is shown as Processing and "Expected to be shipped by 20th Mar 2020"...a little frustrating given it's sold out elsewhere....but who knows how they're operating in the current climate.

    Baby Universal ‘97 is a real 'ear-bleeder' isn't it. I'm surprised they put this out to be honest...

    I ordered the EP from Rhino on Feb 14th and got an instant confirmation email. I got a shipping notification on March 19th and its scheduled to arrive today.

    Thanks. I don't think I ever got a confirmation email, bc I went aggressively looking for it at one point to figure out just which mailing address I used when I filled out the form. So I don't know whether to worry about porch pirates or being forbidden to go to the Post office because plague.

    It's always somethin'.

    Thanks. To confirm, was this from Rhino or Music Glue?

    I've had just had a note (from the latter) to say the release date is now 2nd April...

    Can't be any worse than Bowie's real studio albums from the last 20 years. All borderline unlistenable on CD.

    Good luck! Hopefully it'll just show up on your door, but with no order confirmation or a shipping notification, doesn't sound like they got your order. I think I ordered as a 'guest' instead of making an account. I assume you already tried logging into their site if you set up an account. If that doesn't work I would just call them!

    The Earth is spinning off it's axis right now. I can't imagine this going out of print so quickly. I believe it'll be more readily available once we finish tending to more important matters.

    FWIW, the streaming version sounds fine to me. Significantly more listenable than, say, Reality or Blackstar. I can't imagine it being a different mastering than whatever the CD is, but by modern Bowie standards this isn't bad at all.
