PS I pre-ordered as well. EUR 17,64

Very interested. Is there a way to change language of English at German amazon site? Thanks.

There was a box in the upper right hand corner of each page that read "Translate." Worked well enough to get to the purchase page.

That's what I thought - but when looking it must be German ...in any event, I knew enough of the color coded buttons to make the order It is an incredible deal - apparently new remasters - and came to approximately $23.50 US.

Amazon UK now has this listed at £16.91.

My box set was waiting when I got home tonight. Looks like I have to keep the previous remasters, which did a more authentic job of reproducing the album covers, and I think have more bonus material (I was gonna keep 'em anyway, of course). No booklet or updated liner notes, outside of the bonus disc.

Is this the first complete CD version of Hawkwind's Greasy Truckers Party set? I know they shared space with the other acts on the original double LP. And I never owned the 1999 Party album before, which, despite the title, was recorded live in Chicago in 1974.
