    Got my shipping notice for the ORS6 box sets this morning. Let’s see how it takes to get down to Sydney…

    Sweet! Haven't received shipping email yet from Amazon Canada on the CD & vinyl box sets.

    Here is a Spin Magazine that I have that talks about Mirror Ball. It mentions how Neil Young was just about to turn 50. Time flies.

    Mine came. Cleaning them now. Can't wait to play them.

    Apparently Peace and Love is extended.

    This set is really nice. Pretty close reproduction sleeve wise (MB is just natural cardboard and not chipboard like the original. Also, the original had a higher gloss ink. this new press is flat. Sleeve is wider too. Probably because the records are 180g

    Here is my original pressing if anyone wants to compare. I opened it but left the shrink wrap on because of the sticker.

    The new cut is a bit softer. Still very dynamic. The OP is probably a touch punchier. Both have a great soundstage. Basically, both are great cuts (both by Bellman too). Marginal difference sound wise except for the new analog tracks.

    German shop hhv delayed the delivery to Oct 31. Well, I waited so long for Mirrorball on vinyl, I will be able to handle an additional week.

    So Peace and Love has an extra 90seconds of seesawing feedback. Kinda cool.

    There are some mixing differences besides just the now analog tracks. 

    The hey hos in Song X start in the chorus rather than the first verse.

    Someone on discogs is selling the records individually for $55, for anyone who doesnt want to pay for the whole set or wait until some time next year.

    So they eventually sell them individually? Good to know.
