Underworld "1992-2012 The Anthology " and "A Collection": Release Dec. 4, 2011

[stimpee]

Not sure how you can release a 1992-2012 collection on 28th December 2011, but sure why not. Lets have it early.

"We are updating the shop. Please come back soon."

:O!!

while on one hand "YAY"

on the other - DAMN - as I meant to buy those two Brixton Live Here Now cd's (as I've lost my digital copy of one of them... my external hd crapped out)

[crank]

I'm sure there are other ways of acquiring said items...

2. The Hump, previously only available on limited vinyl
3. An apparently longer version of Big Meat Show. 9:05 vs. 6:51 on the demo DAT.
4. An apparently longer version of Minneapolis. 10:04 vs. approx. 9:07 on the vinyl.
5. Full version of Why Why Why (12:12)
6. Second Hand. Previously only available on Cafe Del Mar collection.
7. Parc (Live) (2005). Possibly a previously unreleased version. Track timing (3:28) does not match any previous release (Amsterdam - 7:39, The Bells The Bells - 4:16, Brixton - 8:15). It was known to have been played in 2005 at Montreux Jazz Festival and Melt Festival.

Bang, i appreciate the details/breakdown!
Yes, i will buy this especially for
2. The Hump (didn't have a quality rec. of that),
3. Big Meat Show (longer version) and
6. Second Hand (though i'm pretty happy with the version that used to be on the UWLive archive, like back in 2002-ish...it's apparently a live studio jam but fairly true to the Cafe del Mar version).

As for the other tracks, i'm still hopeful, but the time differences, even a minute or more, usually spell "edit" or "looped fade out" to me. But hey, there were some surprises on 1992-2002 and also on the Ansum/AHDO promo...hopefully here as well.

These look interesting, & stuff I'd be after.
What I can't understand, is howcome they aren't up on anything other than HMV japan, ie amazon, play, HMV & all the others don't appear to have it listed.
Very short notice if they're not up yet.

Amazon US has short samples, for what its worth, as well as a Dec 4, 2011 release for the mp3 version...

Amazon UK has the anthology with a release date of 23 January 2012:

it looks like "groove without a doubt" is the one going on the compilation— the original "the hump" — looks like it's not going to be there.
