CD #2 will be determined by success of #1, so lets do whatever we can to make this a project the medal we can all wear proudly!

I downloaded all the tracks from CD Baby this morning (I'm an instant self-gratification kind of a kind). Very, very nicely done all around everyone!! I particularly like "What's Your Status" and "Space Night" after the first listen through, but all the tracks are fantastic. Its humbling to hear the quality of stuff that folks on this forum can produce.

One small complaint about the album though. The text file that came with the downloaded version does not have any liner notes with credits or information about who wrote/performed each track. The mp3 tags don't have that info either (just says "various artists"). Does the insert or booklet that comes with the physical CD have any info.
I couldn't tell from Todd's pic.
Also, would someone be willing to post a scan of the back cover and the inside of the insert/booklet for those of us who download the mp3's? The download from CD Baby includes only the front cover.
Yeah, I know...some people are just never satisfied. :|
Thanks!

Thanks André.

Much appreciated, However there are a number people (apart from the artists) without whom this wouldn't have flown.

I think we should name names:
André
Ronny
Moo
Todd
Darren
and (without who nothing would be possible) Rob and Dawn

Apologies if I have missed anyone involved. Feel free to 'out' them if I have

Great to see it come to fruition.

Cheers

That's great folks !

I also ordered my copy today :)

...and this is the confirmation that I've got from them, brilliant !

Your CD has been gently taken from our CD Baby shelves with
sterilized contamination-free gloves and placed onto a satin pillow.

A team of 50 employees inspected your CD and polished it to make sure
it was in the best possible condition before mailing.

Our packing specialist from Japan lit a candle and a hush fell over
the crowd as he put your CD into the finest gold-lined box that money
can buy.

We all had a wonderful celebration afterwards and the whole party
marched down the street to the post office where the entire town of
Portland waved "Bon Voyage!" to your package, on its way to you, in
our private CD Baby jet on this day, Saturday, March 14th.

I hope you had a wonderful time shopping at CD Baby. We sure did. Your picture is on our wall as "Customer of the Year." We're all
exhausted but can't wait for you to come back to CDBABY.COM!!

Thank you, thank you, thank you!

Sigh...

Received my CD's today! Very Impressive. A round of applause to all involved. (not too much applause mind! A golf clap will suffice!! ) A top notch, and proud achievement.

Also a big hand should go to everyone who submitted tracks for the album. :D

Well...did my weekly drive up to north, about a 4 hour drive. I put in the Statii CD and listened to it throughout my drive.

I know I am repeating myself, but...this album is something we can be so proud of!!!

The CD flows so nicely from song to song, the sound quality is slick and the talent is impressive. I don't deserve to be in this league.

I sold several copies of the CD whilst up north, I was able to hold my head up high when other musicians were so complimentary of every aspect of the CD's production, the cover design, the introductions and remarks from Mr King and Mr Green, the sound, the playing...

The icing on the cake is the cause, Cancer Research, what human can not support such a cause?

We should be proud and greatful to Sir Andre and Rob Green for making all this possible.


P.S. watch the speed limit when listening to S.Y.T.A.C or Salvador Dali...
