At amazon.de a German customer wrote in his review that he has the Super Deluxe Edition with the download coupon of the Madrid show, but TELEGRAPH ROAD!! is missing...

I guess he is right - he checked the www and found the official setlist with TR of course, but it is not contained in his download.  :disbelief :disbelief

So if there was any reason for me NOT to buy the Super Deluxe, this one will do it! I can't believe it.... They sold it two years abo via simfylive complete and now....

Maybe someone of our Super Deluxe-AMITers can check??

Privateering is Number 1 at the amazon.de charts btw...

LE

Shameful !!
Is this an implict acknowledge that 2008/2010 versions of TR are too laid-back, "karaoke mode" ? will it be played in 2013 like in 2005 ? would be great...

I would say so, regarding your first point.

I won't add to the general paranoia. twm, said he's already got it! The rest of us are still waiting. And the thing about the extra tracks, I really think it is the last time I fall for such marketing. And I am a fool only for 2-3 artists, but I won't take it even from them, anymore. Maybe this is the only way to teach them a lesson. I would have probably accepted  every mis-step they have made on fans' expense, if they delivered on time or given the chance to cancel order. This is a serious violation of trust and when things cool off a bit they will hear it from me.
Come on, it is not funny anymore.

I have the deluxe box too. My wife works at Mediamarkt and they got the box this afternoon. Just in time before she went home.
Very strange that Bol.com is saying universal got problems, I think Bol has got a problem.

Anyway. I really like this box. The DVD has got a little bit from the EPK on it. Not the whole EPK. And the three bonus songs are great.
Mark whistling on river of grog (he must be drunk when writing  ;)) great song IMO.
Occupation blues would love to hear this song live. Really like the guitar in this song.
Follow the ribbon. Don't know what to think about this one, too slow for me but then again love the strat sound in it. Have to hear it more.

And what about the box I hear you think, well I am just a sucker for box sets.

That's true. Also the numbered card  :-\ just the cover with a number on it. Mine is 5712. I have got another box for my brother in law. Will not be open till next thursday.

poor artwork, poor content (credit card? a cheapo cardboard card!) poor choice of concerts (great show, but come on, it was released already) great album...

The DVD contains a life in songs and the a little piece from the EPK is mixed in it.

Speaking of crap content:
Don't forget the 5 "Live from the Rehearsal room" tracks... (no haven't heard them yet... but the choice of tracks alone..)

Have said it before: The Dylan Knopf-shows were around 75 minutes - perfect for a Live CD... why for heaven's sake not put a COMPLETE show on it ....
