  1. I'll take your bet! Lol. Well, they seem to have patched up things then. The naming of the last compilation on Island as U.F.Off and the cover art was a little bit of Fuck You to Island, if I remember correctly.
  2. The selection stops probably at Cydonia because this is on Island Records. Cydonia was their last album on that label. Seems nice but I already have most of this stuff. Edit: Also I'm betting that Paterson has nothing to do with this. He was pretty pissed at Island at some point.

    A Stranger in Tibet: The Adventures of a Wandering Zen Monk It's about a Japanese zen monk called Ekai Kawaguchi who in 1897 decides to got Tibet to search for Buddhists texts because he thinks the Chinese translations in Japan are not good enough. The guy is absolutely hell bent on getting to the scriptures. Tibet and Nepal were both closed from foreigners at the time and he learns the local languages by talking to children and women in the street, is robbed, is deserted by his guides, etc. He was also the first Japanese person to visit Tibet and Nepal. From the Wikipedia: From the book: It's a really fascinating book and gives a lot of background on Tibet and Tibetan Buddhism also.

  19. I would have expected this to be much darker given the subject matter and the Reach for the Dead preview. I think Geogaddi is way more dark and unsettling. I like TH anyways. Also just last week I had a dream of nuclear war between UK and Germany, lol. The euro crisis had broken up the EU and the old European states were at war again. People were cheering as their countries' nuclear bombers were flying overhead which was pretty chilling.
  20. Despatched Edit: If it's actually dispatched now it has a small chance of arriving on monday, but I'm guessing it's either tuesday or wednesday..
  21. You just know those three authors are about to see a minor bump in sales figures for the next month or two... I just read that Sacks book (Musicophilia) a few months ago. Oliver Sacks is selling tons as it is already, I don't think BOC fans can contribute any noticeable bump.
