I've forwarded to New West the original note to me that appeared in the digest about the Spanish article announcing this. I asked whether this will be on the standard edition or the deluxe edition or is just wrong. With any luck I'll get another relatively quick response.

The la-*test*-('") word from New West

I don't have any news for the message board on the bonus DVD content.
However, I should have answers very soon on the bonus audio tracks that will
be on the CD and vinyl.

It looks like very soon will be today or tomorrow. I just received the following note from New West.

I'll let you know later today or tomorrow all the details about the bonus
content.  Thought this would have happened sooner but it will be worth the wait.
I like the "worth the wait" bit there.

Thanks for all your efforts Neilo - much appreciated.

The youtube clip is fascinating and I can't wait till I get my hands on the bonus DVD issue. Many thanks also to NewWest Records for having the courage and foresight to post the clip on youtube. Here's a to a long and successful partnership between Ray and this record company - the signs are very promising so far. Lets hope Ray gets the recognition he so richly deserves.

Thanks for the link, Neil. The DVD looks to be excellent! It would be interesting enough to have a documentary about him touring the USA, but set against the post-9/11 air travel panic, it will be a unique look at both Ray and America for sure.

Thanks Neil O' for the links - the QuickTime file from the Harp Magazine link is good quality and well worth the extra download time. (circa 57 megabytes)

Must be something with the Davies brothers -they like being filmed on London Bridges. Dave's recent download of 'Living on a thin line' also featured a London bridge-albeit a pedestrian one -The Millenium Bridge.
