THE NEXT DELUXE/REMASTERED ALBUM FROM PAUL
-
I suppose one can hope but how would one distinguish a hand signed number from a concord packaging employee to that of Paul. I think this is Concord marketing at its finest. The 'limited' amount dictated the price because the exclusiveness of the packaging.

Hendrix Ibsen:
"Tug of War" was huge when it came out. A smash hit album with the smash hit single "Ebony and Ivory". And the music critics loved it. I think it's timeless but it seems that the album has been somewhat forgotten by the crowd. It's a bit adult contemporary perhaps. It was popular in the 80s. Exciting to see how it is received now.
TOW remains my favorite Paul album ever. I've never sprung for a deluxe edition on any of the reissues, but I may this time.

You can buy right from the US shop! My friend from England, bought mine, from the US store, had it shipped here, so it was less too. The dollar conversion was cheaper and no VAT tax!

I think I will be happy with the regular releases of the remasters. I have the original mix of TOW if I want to revisit it, but I tend to enjoy remixes better, such as in the case of Lennon's previous remasters of Mind Games & Rock n' Roll. I agree about Venus & Mar's needing a remix; I would humbly add that Wings over America also would have benefitted. George Harrison's Dark Horse also needed it badly. As for the Super Deluxe, I would rather take that money and give to some charity, instead of having some big box of Pipes looming over my minuscule and more worthy albums that have not received the same treatment. I am a McCartney fan, but I am Beatles/ Harrison fan 1st. I think it would be safe to say that I regret having bought the deluxe editions, as gorgeous as they are, of the first reissues-McCartney, Ram...and would have rather have had the standard CD's. But I am excited about these two albums. I was very young when both came out but I do remember loving TOW. Glad to see Rainclouds coming out. Love that B side!

Super deluxe edition of "Tug Of War" sold out within less than 24 hours. http://kingsroadmerch.com/paul-mccartney/view/?id=7988&cid=1845
Well, finally the Super Deluxe Edition is all sold out.
I ordered TOW Super Deluxe about 1 hour ago on the UK site, shows still available so perhaps its so many each country?? http://uk.kingsroadmerch.com/paul-mccartney/view/?id=9098&cid=2817
I see that Amazon Canada has TOW deluxe box available for pre order. Perhaps not sold out?

They are cheaper today. I just went in and put them in "my cart" and each deluxe set was $73.65 + $11.97 shipping (this is Canadian dollars) So U.S. $121.66 total!
-
I just checked back and what they call the deluxe (3 CD + DVD) is $77.10! So the one I quoted at $73.65 only has 2 CDs. (Canadian $ quoted here) Is TOW the only one that has the Super Deluxe version? (not POP I mean)
-
So, I switched the order (which I haven't placed yet) to the Super deluxe TOW at $77.10 and POP at $73.65 + $11.97 shipping for total of $162.72 which is $124.30 U.S. dollars!
-
OMG, I'm glad I didn't place my order yet! They have a deluxe POP listed for $77.10 also. I don't see a Super Deluxe. That still makes the total only $166.17 ($126.93) This is the figure Metal God was quoting. Sorry for the confusion! ETA: Placed my order! (I also get free transaction fee from AMEX for conversion to U.S. $)

The super deluxe TOW wasn't available on Amazon at all I don't think, only on the site listed on Paul's site. It is now sold out so I doubt Amazon will get it. POP didn't have a super deluxe offering, just the regular deluxe.

I love the quality of these boxed sets! They are so thoughtfully done with reproductions of bits and bobs of items from the time frame of the album, along with Linda's photos... I can't wait to see this one, one of my fav albums!
