(thought I’d update the post with the new album cover, since we have it now – does it remind anyone else of the Beatles’ “Abbey Lane” cover?)
We’ve all been not so very patiently waiting for their new CD to be announced! Yes, finally, it is to be released on Feb 22, 2019! However, it is only on Amazon.it for right now. I’m sure it will be available on Amazon in the USA eventually, but who knows when? 🙂
Of course, this die-hard fan has already ordered it, but I’ve also heard a few of you had beat me to it already – lol…
I ordered mine on Saturday and got the expedited shipping – of course, and it says it will be delivered the last week of February. If you choose regular shipping, arrival is first week of March or so. But if you choose the expedited shipping, for $18, it still says arrival Feb 27 – 28. Also, do not let the FREE SHIPPING entice you – that is only for ITALY! If you can understand Italian, or at least figure it out, that’s good. If not, Google Chrome, and if you have the new Microsoft Edge, both have a translate feature. I had to do the plug-in for the Edge, but it works beautifully. Since the CD has not been officially released, there is no picture, or any song lists….
Of course, those of you lucky enough to be in Italy, may get to see the guys in person at an event signing… sigh…. 🙁 Perhaps that is why they are not doing any touring until March, so they can do a CD signing tour?
If you are short on cash right now, not to worry, they won’t bill you until they ship. 🙂 If you think the shipping is a lot, it is; however, I went back to my notes and realized I paid $25 for the expedited copy of the Grande Amore – Sanremo edition 4 years ago, so price has actually gone down. So this is a bargain… Interestingly, the CD is listed as 22.74 euros, however, when you click on it, the price indicates the 18 euros price (or lower).
If you still have not gotten their book (I really doubt it will be translated into English…) it is also available for a lot less than originally published, however, the shipping is more than the book cost! lol! But still well worth it – around $20…. (I think the book was originally close to $20) The book is available immediately, so why not treat yourself to the book and the CD; and you can struggle through the Italian, while you wait for the CD! Again, don’t be fooled by the free shipping….
Sanremo starts just 2 weeks from tonight! Our heads will be spinning with news and anticipation. Stay close to our site for all of the latest and greatest news and interviews translated by Daniela!
