There are less than 300 copies remaining of Marvin Gaye's In Our Lifetime?: Expanded Love Man Edition. This 2CD expanded edition includes a newly remastered version of the original LP, outtakes from those final mixes, plus a previously unknown and unheard alternate mix and lineup of the album. But if you want In Our Lifetime? in your lifetime, don't delay!

Amazon.co.uk also has copies of this outstanding album. Some Hip-O Select titles are now offered at amazon.co.uk. I'm not sure if these are part of the total limited print run. In the case of the Motown singles boxes, they are separate editions for the UK market.

It wasn't clear from the note Hipocrates sent me whether the 300 remaining was the total available, or just those available to US customers. I would bet this did not include the UK. But, I suppose one would expect any Gaye releases to sell out in the UK as well.

Sort of off topic but I received a similar e-mail about the Love collection, only 300 copies left.

Cheaper at Amazon (and free shipping too), although I don't know how many copies they have left:

Here's Amazon's listing ~ I don't know how it compares to the price at Hip-O's site ~ Amazon says they only have 3 left in stock, but several third party dealers have it available for about $10 less:

Don't really want to make a separate thread for this, so I'll add it here ~ for some reason many new release sources are saying that this Marvin Gaye's "At The Copa" Hip-O CD of a previously unreleased 1966 concert is going into general release tomorrow (September 25th):



>> To Motown founder Berry Gordy, the Copa was a destination. The mere concept  that a roster of black artists from inner-city Detroit who had a few teen hits would perform there, release albums recorded there and be accepted and return there  was a revolutionary thought. And it happened. Marvin wanted to be the Motown crooner, to sit on a stool and purr love songs like Perry Como, Nat and Sinatra. When he got his shot, over the first two weekends of August 1966  during a dry hits period  Marvin was game but ambivalent: he chafed at the choreography, prepared little stage patter, wavered a bit during the first set. But reviews were generally good, and Motown sent an eight-track reel-to-reel tape recorder the second weekend to record five shows. Marvin Gaye At The Copa was slated to be released in early 1967, with catalog number Tamla 273, and Motowns art department mocked up a cover. It never happened. The shows were never mixed down for staff review. Marvin never returned to the Copa. Until right now. Hip-O Selects edition represents the best of those shows. Since Marvin didnt do the exact same set every night, now you can feel like you went to every one. Newly and painstakingly remixed, the Select version runs twice as long as what the original LP may have been. Marvin is amped from the opening number, getting the audience involved during How Sweet It Is (To Be Loved By You), and making the ladies swoon during the sexy Brazilian number, Laia Ladia (Reza). His ballads are breathtaking, especially Night Song, taken from Sammy Davis Jr.s Broadway show Golden Boy. He takes on Sinatra, re-interpreting Strangers In The Night, which then was a #1 hit for the Chairman. The Motown Medleys are also a lot of fun, as they include (brief) live versions of his songs he rarely did live and hits by other Motown artists. The Copacabana Orchestra, conducted by Motowns Maurice King, kicks butt from start to finish. <<
