On some albums he isn't there at all - Mark plays all the guitars, but maybe Robbie McIntosh is playing instead.   Perhaps Richard will be in the touring band, as usual.

Mark got angry because Richard started touring with Neil Diamond again so he's the "guest musician" now

jbaent, what did you change/update?   I copied directly (copy/paste) from the official site.   Have they changed it?   This track list is only for US edition, not European.  That might cause confusion.

In mk.com, drovers road is not listed in the standard edition, but in the virgin site it is... So being mk.com in Canada, I guess the NA version don't have that song but the European, or the UK one does...

I know it's confusing. That's why I put the remark.

Thanks for the photo! While loading it I've got a bizarre glitch, take a look:

I can't stop laughing

My question is — Mark, why so serious? One of the grumpiest photos of Mark I've ever seen, even grumpier than this one:

"VIA BLUE NOTE"

That's interesting.  Blue Note is generally a jazz label.

Jazz guitar on the picture, now Blue Note... Man, to say I'm excited is to say nothing!

The Deluxe Boxed version includes bonus tracks only on a vinyl album? Four songs. I thought about the CD. If four, the CD Deluxe version gives us 15 tracks. I do not understand something

I get the point of adapting a product to various markets, but an album? As if an album would sell better in for instance the US by replacing one song at the end. Really?

It is not first time. Do not forget (for example) Sailing to Philadelphia, there were 3 versions: worldwide, UK & US editions with different track lists.

Yeah, I know. It's very strange.
