Quatermass
http://www.progrockmag.com/news/quat...ts-re-release/

The one and only album recorded by Quatermess is set for re-release in June, complete with new mixes.

Founding member J Peter Robinson – later of Brand X – has masterminded a 5.1 surround sound and new stereo version of the landmark self-titled 1970 record that turned heads with its musicianship, concept and vision.

The DVD/CD set also features three bonus tracks, two of which are previously unreleased, and includes an illustrated booklet with commentary by Robinson. It’s released via Esoteric Recordings on June 24.

On the same day Esoteric also launch a collection of unreleased studio sessions by Robinson’s experimental outfit The Sphincter Ensemble. Harrodian Event #1 was recorded in 1972 and features Quatermass bassist John Gustafson, who later worked with Steve Hackett and Roxy Music. Also present are Martyn Ford (Barclay James Harvest), Paul Buckmaster (David Bowie), Trevor Morais and Tony Walmsley.

I'll likely order this from amazon.co.uk. Before Linda added these links, I had found it at the cherryred website. Pricing was competitive with amazon but after adding 10 CDs to my cart to order, I realized they charge almost 4 pounds per item for shipping! Almost 40 pounds to send 10 CDs to the U.S.? Forget that order! With their reduction in price for VAT and combined shipping, amazon remains tough to beat for imports.

I sometimes use dvd.co.uk their postage charges are low but service is not so good. I had a few issues but 90% of my orders have arrived.

If one happens to be a club member to Esoteric / Red Cherry...the have a summer sale going on:

any 10 Cds

I have requested confirmation if the cost includes shipping. I do not know if they have openings for the club (it was only 100 members when they started the Hawkwind re-release, and I was member 88 for quite a few years).

I am thinking of picking up the Quatermass as part of it, but I don't know anything about them.
