Thanks @joker1961. Kind offer. With our postal system in the shambles it's in, it's doubtful that I would get the CD's at all. A courier from overseas would make it all the more expensive as well. What I'll do is wait for a friend to go overseas and bring me back a copy :)

No problem getting Classic Rock, Mojo, Uncut, Rolling Stone magazines. The specialist magazines like Prog and Blues versions of CR are unavailable at most places, and also twice the price. CR is the only one that I buy regularly despite them being a month old by the time we get them.

Anyone enjoying the 50th Anniversary edition of "Sgt Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band"? Which edition did you guys get? As mentioned above, I've bought the 2-disc version so far, but damn, listening to it makes me want that 6-disc box set badly. Still, I'm gonna try to hold on for a price drop.

I got the deluxe 6 disc job. The remix is amazing, the book is finely detailed and the 3-D cover is pretty darned cool. I wish they would do this with every Beatles album, at least from "Rubber Soul" onwards. I heard the next album to get this treatment will be "The White Album". I can't wait.

I was around back in the day when that "Paul Is Dead" rumor was at it's peak. In New York City, we had an overnight radio talk show host named Alex Bennett who spoke on that topic quite often. He personally didn't believe it but convinced the radio station to send him to England to broadcast from there and interview British "experts" and acquaintances of Paul. Great radio theater!

At face value, the Paul Is Dead theory sounds ridiculous but all those supposed clues that were found and explained were quite chilling and imaginative
