After all these years and years and years... since I was knee-high toa grasshopper. [ed] I have to still track down the non-Barry Gray incidental music from, "The Responsibility Seat" I heard in a hotel in Bologna, Italy... but that'sanother story. All I can say is a HUGE and I mean HUGE "THANK YOU" to ALL that made this CD set happen. You have my eternal and undying thanks!! Best to all :) Griff PS. One happy man! |

> BRILLIANT AND UTTERLY FANTASTIC!!!!!! Glad you like it. :-) Did you have the initial release? I saw on the Fanderson discussion group that the stereo masters for IDENTIFIED and THE LONG SLEEP are still missing, and the mono tapes from these episodes are still incomplete, although they cheated a bit by using the episode "music and effects" track from THE LONG SLEEP to add a few extra pieces of music.

I had seriously thought about spending some of my hard earned cash on this CD, but I am still waiting for my membership to come through for Fanderson - and they took the money from my account on Nov 19th! Won't be getting a UFO key ring for Christmas at this rate. :-(
Bit disappointing really. Or am I expecting too much? Andersoniccame two days after I ordered it and I half expected Fanderson to be more efficient. Anyone else had problems?

I understand that one can order the exclusive Fanderson Sales items at the same time they send in their application, but I guess it's too late for that information to be useful to you now. :-( Otherwise, you could find a contact email address on their website and ask what you can do now to order items. It may be that you don't receive anything from Fanderson until the next issue of their magazine comes out? Marc |

I joined earlier in the year, and it did take 2-3 weeks.

> I have received everything from Fanderson in reasonable to very fast time
> span. I think it took around 3 weeks for me to receive my new soundtrack, although most of that was probably postal mailing time back and forth. Now that I've listened to the whole thing, I can say that this new soundtrack is definitely better than the original release. I was a bit critical of the original release, because I thought it was missing too many memorable pieces of music from the series, and instead had a lot of "unused music". This release eliminates all of the unused music and replaces it with the music that should have been there to start with (I think the original reasoning was that much of this music was originally created for previous Gerry Anderson series, and that these tracks should appear on those soundtrack CDs, not this one) Also, I was critical of a few of the stereo remixes which didn't sound much like the original music. My biggest complaint was the fast paced music where Foster gets roughed up by thugs in EXPOSED (also Foster escaping in COURT MARTIAL), but I think they've remixed that track for this release to sound closer to the original (I haven't done a direct comparison -- that was just my first impression). I suppose if you cannot get a response from Fanderson via the email address you are using, you could try posting something on the Fanderson forum, where more than one person will potentially see it: http://www.fanderson.org.uk/forum/ But they are definitely still in business -- I received my CD just the other day!

Hi Louise,
This is very odd, as everything I have ordered from Fanderson has always arrived very promptly, and living on a very small island, getting any post here is a challenge, believe me... I think Marc's suggestion is best... I am not defending Fanderson (as I don't think they need it) here, but a few things to consider: - You may be a victim of the post (it could have got lost, backlog, Xmas, and strikes... don't know where you live) - I believe all the Fanderson sales despatches are done by one person - There is a lot of cold and flu around at the moment - esp in the UK - Fanderson is run by unpaid volunteers, it's not a business... Fingers crossed your UFO CD set arrives soon... it's worth waiting for. Hope this is of some help, Griff --- In [hidden email], Louise Oatridge <louise.oatridge@...> wrote: > > Okay, this is getting extremely annoying! > Nov 19th Fanderson email to say they have accepted my payment. >  > I have now waited , and waited , and waited.

Hi Griff, It's the membership I'm waiting for! I want to order stuff but I am still waiting fopr a membership number etc. All I really want is an acknowledgement that they are sending it out and although I've emailed twice I still haven't heard from them. Oh well, it will be someting to look forwardto after Christmas! I am intrigued - a very small island? Tracy?
Thanks!
