Title: Amazon showing Zinman/Tonhalle Zurich M7 release (RCA)
Post by: barry guerrero on May 21, 2009, 07:55:06 PM
It's just on one disc, but the import price is sky high. Best to wait, I reckon. Also, no timings are listed.

Perhaps a nudge toward David H?  Hint, hint.

Well, they do this every time: release the expensive Japanese pressing first. It's not even listed on yet on the German Sony/RCA Classics web site. Then it takes months and months for a cheaper pressing to get released. Then it takes another six months or so, before it gets distributed in the U.S. It's all very frustrating.

The jacket looks really good. The best so far in the series.

Bare (bear?) in mind that Sony/BMG hasn't even released the Zinman M6 in the U.S. yet! Maybe they're waiting to release "Going Against Fate" at the same time? Naaaaaaaaaah   .    .     .  why should we assume that they actually have a business plan of some kind.
