Got my copy last week. Incredible work all around, incl the record itself and the sleeve.

Received today, on Albini's birthday.

Thanks Andy for chucking it across the pond. I know the post is a pain, but it's greatly appreciated. Look forward to playing it later.

Mine turned up... in the fucking garden. Great.

It's completely soaked through. I've separated out the bits and I'm trying to dry it out but it's all looking a bit fucked. I see there are still a few for sale, so I might get another one even though postage is expensive for me and a hassle for you and they just end up throwing it in the garden at the end apparently. Sorry.

Despite taking a bath I got the record playing though, and it's fun! And the artwork is lovely. The whole thing is charmingly casual and simple and pleasing and a great little thing.

The lyrics are awesome. I didn't know I needed to hear what Steve Albini attempting to write a Dio song about baseball might sound like. It sounds like a good time.

And copy #2 has arrived safely. I do believe it was delivered by the same courier, who rather than taking the conventional option of leaving it in the letterbox, chose instead to perch it precariously on top of a nearby fencepost, where it would be sure to catch my eye, or the slightest breeze, whichever comes first.

Which was me, this time. Much thanks again.
