Information about "Down the road wherever"

[Jules]

Thanks for finding and posting all this background info, guys! So interesting.

And now that journalists already got a link, it can only be a matter of days until the whole thing leaks somewhere ... 

I don't think any journalist got any link, I think that person is lying...

Why? Because I have a friend who has access to that links because of his work and MK record hasn't appeared yet. Only the single and it lasted three days.

So maybe that person just listened to the single and generalized that sound to all the record, or that person is lying.

I don't think anybody lied. Actually, I just found the first download links online. Illegal, of course, and I'm not yet sure whether any of them will work, but the album's definitely leaked. As it would, inevitably. I'll try and find a working link when I have the time, and it listen to it later this week (when I have even more time  ). Oh, and yes, of course I'll also BUY it as soon as that's possible.

Haha, no, I

I also found many illegal download links when Tracker, 99% fake, many of them you had the give a credit card, beware...

Record companies changed the system, they don't send cd's anymore, they have an internal website where they put the releases and you have to be credited to listen to that music they put in their site. Those songs have a watermark that points to your user so if there is a leak, they have a guilty.

When Tracker came out in that website my friend tried to capture it to me, and due to the watermark was impossible as the sound went up and down and noisy. That system really works and avoid the leaks.

Interesting ... we'll see. One of the links I found so far was working – I could download the album - but it comes with a password, and to get that, you'd have to submit a working email address. Which of course I won't. But it shows that the album's out. All previous albums leaked long before the actual release date, so I suppose we'll have this one pretty soon, too.

And if you provide an e-mail, then you will have to provide a credit card etc

beware

fake links.

If the album is REALLY leaked, you will see that it's leaked here:

I used this site for several releases and it's always right when they say something has leaked.

Yeah, I know that site. I was able to download a zip file containing 16 correctly-named songs, as it seems. But they are password-protected. I tend to believe they the really ARE the songs, though, which is why I expect a non-protected download soon. Once some people have the files, it's hard to control them.

That's another of the risks of those fake downloads...

I know, but I think I know when to be alerted by now, and when to stop. I've download several albums from rather dodgy-looking sites in the past because I didn't want to wait for the official release date, and never caught any viruses. I'd never give away real email addresses, though, let alone credit-card details. And I'm not really interested in "stealing" something. I'm happy to pay for whatever music I listen to, and I will. Mark, in particular, got quite a bit of money from me over the years . But I just want to hear his new album as soon as I can, no matter how.

100% agree, same philosophy here.
Please let me know also when the leak is available
And I swear, I will buy it in its most expensive edition, as I have always done !

sorry don't understand exactly what you mean, but I was refering to the post where you said that the guy was lying. I don't think it's the case

oh I just read my post again, and I was meaning "you can call ME Guy Fletcher now"  (because of the "Soon" word of course

Maybe this was answered here before, but does anyone know why the song order is TOTALLY different on the vinyl albums? Very strange. I don't think that's ever been the case in the past, and I can't see any reason for it.

I have the album. I will listen to it this evening and will report later....
