According to our local record shop it's all delayed until next year.
That's bad news, I've been looking forward to this. This may also be the last recordings made by Terry Hall.
I think it is.

Speaking of Terry I've been playing the new Fun Boy 3 box set that arrived today. Definitely under appreciated.
My copy arrives Monday and I am excited! It took me a while to realize it and appreciate it but they continued the Specials work and were super experimental at times.

I think the name and the image put people off.
I'm on Disc 3 now. A great box set.
Yep great box set and superb value.

Looks like the delay of the albums release may have had something to do with Terry Hall. He is no longer going to be on the album apparently. I read this on a Terry Hall Facebook page today.

Really, what did it say? A wicked shame if that's the case.

I can't find the post now (of course) but the reason wasn't clear. Something wasn't completed before he passed seemed to be the reason. They also said his name is no longer on the track listing but it is on the Bandcamp page so I don't know. Can you imagine someone spreading misinformation in this day?

Seems a very strange one. The release date was set for September this year I think. So I would've assumed the track with Terry would have been finished.

Cheers for the info. Great is getting sorted but a shame about the Terry track.

Got this email today.

We have been informed by the label that the Outta Sync Coloured Vinyl format is no longer being pressed and as a result, we have cancelled this item from your order.

Is Don about to get accused of being a serial killer or what? That would actually make him even cooler in my eyes.

Well the cd finally arrived today, I've got to say it's pretty good reggae, Don offering up some decent singing too! Shame about the Terry Hall thing and the weird vinyl cancellations...I wonder what's gone wrong...sure I pre ordered this last year! If it does ever make it to vinyl I may pick it up...

I got sent two signed cds. Terry is on The Doorman I think. Was supposed to be on The Universe Knows... which has John Cussack on it. It's a solid album that I give 8/10.

Is he listed on one of your cds? Not on mine, or can you hear him on the chorus or something, wasn't listening out for him as I presumed he was gone completely
