Great news! So happy that I could attend the show at RAH in March with my family (sitting on a bench in Hyde Park drinking wine as an aperitif). Does anybody know if the recording is from one of the nights or if it is a mixture of both? So now we know what BF has been doing during the lockdown. And such a good gesture to share the profit with his excellent band. I´ve just done the mandatory ordering. Bonne journée à tous! Cher Oberon, Evidently it is a mix of the two nights. Salutations, W2

I decided on the CD. To me it's a win-win, exclusive CD signed by BF and helping his band/crew in the process. $27.50 with shipping to the USA.
The lead time between pre-orders and release seems a little excessive. My assumption is that they're not going to start printing until they get a better idea of demand. To minimize cost and maximize funds going to the band/crew, I'm also assuming the packaging may be more austere than prior releases - but again this is Bryan Ferry, so who knows.
I fully expect I'll forget I've ordered this by April so it'll be a fun surprise when it shows up unexpectedly.

I also thought that there was quite a long time lapse between the announcement and the actual release itself - I know for this years 1974 RAH release the BF YouTube channel uploaded a track a week from the album so I wonder if they will do the same this time as that would lead us to release in April.

Interesting that SOTT is the free bonus download, as I think it was only played in Glasgow on the opening night of the tour... Happy to be corrected, if anyone knows to the contrary.

Yeah Glasgow only for SoTT - I would have loved if they gave us I Love How You Love Me. It was great seeing it performed live and then it also got dropped for the rest of the tour.

Arrrgh ! Can anyone help ? I have admittedly been very slow to respond to my email from Bryanferry.com, but having said that I only received said email on the 7th and it is now the 13th . Anyway I have just tried to pre-order the CD and when that was unavailable, then the bundle of vinyl and CD and that was unavailable as well. I can't believe that these items would sell out so quickly particularly when the proceeds are to help the band members etc.
Can anyone advise me what to do next ? John do you have any ideas . Having seen Bryan at Leicester De Montfort Hall on the 9th March ( it was rather poignant as I first saw him live in 1974 - and it was there ). Anyway I digress : it was a terrific concert and I would love to have the memory of it on CD . Sending grateful thanks !

All formats are still available at the Bryan Ferry store: https://store.bryanferry.com/I know that the signed editions are now sold out - could you have perhaps been following a link for those?

While all three versions (i.e. CD, vinyl & bundle) are shown in BF's store in his own website and in the Townsend Music site, it seems that only the vinyl (unsigned now; last Friday was the deadline for signed pre-orders) is currently available for pre-order (CD & bundle get flagged as unavailable when you click on the pre-order button).
I'm guessing that more CDs would be pressed, if demand has exceeded pre-order expectations, so it's probably worth checking back in periodically.
