Mr B: Looking at Amazon UK, this comp is listed with a 23 Feb release date, but is labeled an “Import.” Which seems odd. Also not seeing it for sale on any other UK MP3 stores, so maybe it’s not available there yet? Let me see what I can find out about that.

Not seeing it for sale via any other Brazilian/South American MP3 retailers either. Will let you know if I hear differently.

Not downloadable in Brazil.
You should be compiling “emusic Death Stroke” extra-long-play album, only downloadable in the us. Afterwards comes rebirth as usmusic.

wow! i didn’t know about Chris’s stroke. I saw him many years ago in a basement of a record store wearing flip flops, shorts and a dagey vest armed with an acoustic guitar and a simple casio drum machine. one of the most captivating and fun gigs i’d been too. really sad news, i hope he pulls through. will be buying the album elsewhere unless you get uk rights?

Kinda ironic that you can’t download this in New Zealand, really.

Yes, the “Stroke” comp is fantastic (and, even beyond helping out Chris, anything that gets people listening to his songs is an excellent idea as far as I’m concerned). It’s also worth noting that the Tall Dwarfs song at the end is a new recording, with Chris singing–there are rumors that he and Alec Bathgate are going to be working on a new album together, which would be great.

Even for a good cause “they” can’t get past the “not avalable in your country” thing. I’ll see if I can buy it from Chris Knox’s website.
