I will get this.
Also their 1975 album Royal Bed Bouncer has been remastered and will be available shortly. Although its made up of shorter tracks I still rate it as their best.

| Surprising and disappointing that such a long established band as this should need to raise money to get the latest album made. I've bought the reissues of the first 3 albums so I feel I've done my bit. |

RBB got me hooked on Kayak. Glad to see them getting back to prog. ------------- Released date are often when it it impacted you but recorded dates are when it really happened...

They didn`t quite reach the goal...

| No Reviews yet? Has it been released worldwide or just in Netherlands so far? |

I had it delivered to me last Friday. Quite expensive so I think it probably an import. You can order it from their website and will be shipped anywhere ( I didn't buy it direct it from them but from a company called CD services) .I've been away all weekend and so far only listened to disc one. I hope to post a review soon. |

| Have to admit that it lacks any really outstanding songs even if the production and playing is of the highest professional standard. Probably a 3 star album but will need a lot more listens and maybe it will be a 'grower'. |
