Which part of Available on May 4, 2010 do you not understand?
I hope that everyone else now sees what I have to put up with. Welcome to my nightmare.

So when you say "other vendors," will that include the Autopsy of the Dead site? I'm from the UK and can't order from Amazon US without a credit card.
Plus I've been meaning to pick up that DVD for a while and this would be an excellent excuse.

Looking very much forward to this release. I can only imagine the work you guys did on this. Can you also tell me if the Elite Millennium edition of this on DVD had any replaced cues in it, or it is pretty definitive in presenting the original theatrical version of this film, including its use of the cues? (Love the "in ghoulish monophonic" scrawled across the cover. Heck, not only the Beatles get the glorious mono treatment in the last year!  )

Just a quick update...
The CD is now available for pre-order through the Autopsy of the Dead web site at http://autopsyofthedead.com/news.html -- just click on the cover art and you'll be taken directly to the order page. The release date has once again been pushed back a few weeks so as to not have to rush the replication process.
(Btw, I'm the same person as "Dubious Comforts." I set-up that account after I'd misplaced the log-in details for this one. Just found 'em!)

Dubious ... I have the Varese STV 81151 lp release of Night of the Living Dead. Will not go into discussing liner notes from lp. But, just how does this (your release) differ from the 1982 Varese release?

Thanks for your interest in the project. THEY WON'T STAY DEAD is more complete than the 1982 LP which is missing 19 cues, more than 40% of those used in the film. Due to an error on the cue sheet, the LP also contains an incorrect cue for the posse scenes. This has been corrected on our CD.
Except for "The Music Box," a brand new recording of the music box owned by Kyra Schon, all of the cues on THEY WON'T STAY DEAD have been sourced from stock Capitol Hi-Q LPs and 1/4" reels, which is exactly how George Romero and Karl Hardman obtained this music in 1968.
There is a single Capitol HI-Q track that we could not name or locate: the brief passage heard as the cemetery ghoul approaches Barbara. It's not listed on the cue sheet, doesn't appear on the 1982 LP and none of the library music experts that I worked with could identify it.

Some questions answered...
@Scoresalot - 100% correct, pressed CDs are replicated. This will be a pressed CD.
@Hedji - The packaging is a digipak with full artwork inside and out, and an 8-page booklet containing liner notes and photos.
@workingwithknives - The track titles are the original cue names/codes except for several cues which had been renamed and repackaged as part of a new production music library. It’s necessary that we use the legal names on this type of compilation.
@Untamed Aggression - You may now pre-order the CD along with Autopsy of the Dead at http://www.AutopsyoftheDead.com. Please contact us for shipping rates to the UK.
@Sledge - If all goes well with this release, we have plans for more George Romero film scores which utilize library music. Stay tuned...
@John DeSentis - NOTLD is already out on Blu-Ray: http://tinyurl.com/27u4xfm

Creepshow, maybe?
Creepshow uses some of the same stock tracks as Night of the Living Dead.

Cannot wait for this! Been praying that someone, somewhere would re-release the Varese LP at some point. Never imagined that anyone would out-do it. Complete awesomeness!!!!
