I've ordered the new one, but I'll be keeping my previous 2-volume releases for their two distinct covers. They had separate, contrasting flag paintings, one flag clean with a white attachment and the other ragged with the attachment bloodstained. Very nicely done indeed. The new cover shows only the clean first flag and none of the second ravaged one, which makes the contrivance of the tear across the middle a bit pointless.
At this moment LA RÉVOLUTION FRANÇAISE is our best-selling title in a short time.
Glad to hear it! And may I ask another question about album cover - do you design back side of booklet in same way as Basil Wrathbone describe Disques Cinémusique set?
My congrats on fast selling Delerue CD! Hope we can expect more music from this beloved Maestro especially since the next year is the 90th anniversary of his birthday.
Now, here is an actual update from their Facebook page:
LA RÉVOLUTION FRANÇAISE - Georges Delerue (MBR-053) Plus de 1000 exemplaires vendus en seulement 5 jours ! Moins de 500 exemplaires disponibles. More than 1000 copies sold in 5 days! Less than 500 copies remaining.
THE French REVOLUTION - Georges Delerue (MBR - 053) over 1000 copies sold in just 5 days! Less than 500 copies available. More than 1000 copies sold in 5 days! Less than 500 copies remaining. (Translated by Bing)
Just got my shipping notice. I would *hated* to miss out on this one! Mine is already leave France! But due our Post & Custom low speed I think you'll get it earlier
I opened my copy last night and admired the wonderful packaging. I want to warn you though, that the discs are very difficult to remove from the double plastic holder (pardon my lack of knowledge of the correct term for this). I tried replacing it with another double holder I have but it did not fit into the original case. I have decided to replace it with a complete new case from a nearby music store that stocks them.
This is in NO WAY a complaint but merely a heads-up for others. The outside cardboard cover is beautiful and the plastic case is very high-quality. There are no words for the lovely booklet. I think it is the high quality of the case that is preventing me from removing it easily.
I am going to listen today and cannot wait. Again, merci mon ami.

Just got mine today and am enjoying the extra tracks immensely. Quite agree about the removal of discs. For now they will reside in the original Polydor cases as I certainly don't want to scratch the discs !
Un grand merci chaleureux à Music Box: I'm enjoying this release immensely! Thanks for another lovely release. As for the case: no big deal, just be careful the first couple of times.
My copy just arrived, and it looks terrific! I've not seen the miniseries -- has anyone figured out the chronological sequence yet? (The album presentations are fine, I just like to have the option...)
