Quote MokyWI: I only wish Amazon would be so nice to let me post a review of the book on their site, because I tried to, and instead got this message: Amazon has noticed unusual reviewing activity on this product. Due to this activity, we have limited this product to verified purchase reviews....which to me is totally ridiculous, as I've reviewed a lot of stuff at Amazon that I didn't buy on their site (I brought the book last Saturday at Vroman's Bookstore in central Pasadena) without any problems. How strange … maybe they think someone is posting fake reviews ?

It’s in stock on US Amazon, $29.49. I’m not seeing it as available …. There is not buy / add to cart button but only a buying options Hutton which directs me to various resellers …. I’ve reached out to a few to see if I can get it from them as supposedly some are in UK! If it means I don’t have to wait a month that would be great !

Also the book seems to be out of stock?? The UK edition has been pushed back to end of November and on Amazon.com it seems to be only available from resellers … some asking $50+ a copy

To be a member, you have to pay $150. Like what would you get for that? Seems way hi. I still haven't ordered mine yet. Did we establish Linda can't write? I might have missed it. I really have been praying for her. My list is long lately. Sad. eddiejinnj The signed copies are from a stamp of Linda’s signature - she’s not signing them by hand as she can’t any longer. $150 membership per year gets you advance copies, special signed copies, invitation to events etc … I’m only interested in Lindas’s book so it’s not worth the money (especially as it’s a stamped signature … )

I do wish Mas Canciones and in particular Frenesi got a little more love ... I'm glad that Linda is giving Mas Canciones a mention though

What a great article … Linda always comes across as knowledgable and forthright, but in a calm and educated manner.
Interesting tidbit about her taste in women 😂

I think Linda has shown the most wonderful grace and understanding of her condition. Losing her voice must have been devastating but she seems, at least publicly, to shrug it off and accept it as a fait accompli.
She seems to have adapted wonderfully to her new way of life and I’m so pleased to see her out and about (looking wonderful) and keeping busy with lots of other projects.
I have so much admiration for her, even more now for the way she has handled the change in her situation.

Jealous you all have this, I’m still waiting.
Heyday are now offering signed copies but you have to be a member which costs a minimum of $150 per year

Annoyingly the book is not released in UK until 17 November …

This is a link to just one of the songs released to advertise "Feels Like Home". eddiejinnj It says not available when I click on the link - maybe it’s a location issue ?

What was that about a new album of duets produced after she sold her catalogue ? Other people singing on Linda’s original vocals on tracks like Quieremo Mucho? What ?! Does anyone know more about this … But what a great article - shows what an intelligent writer can produce for a quality magazine

Linda looks amazing in the shots with the white blazer from 1980s !

I think you can hear Linda’s lack of confidence or some uncertainty in the vocals on Lago Azul … it’s a nice track but I think as her confidence and ability in the language grew she positively shone.

Strange he’s contradicting himself but I’d love them to be released if they do exist !

He didn’t mix all those album, I asked him - he said the only one completed was What’s New

Thinking about this … surely someone (George Massenburg?) would have had to remix the CdmP album to have the Dolby Atmos version.
A few years ago when I emailed him he said the only album he’d mixed in Dolby Surround (which was the only mix available at the time) was What’s New.
I’m hoping for more … maybe CLARHLTW

I looked at the link in the story (on my partners phone) and could not find an interview …unless I’m being a bit daft !

I have a subscription to Tidal which offers hi-res music (more so than Spotify and Apple) … they have a Dolby Atmos version of this new album which does sound much more immersive and I’m hearing bits of music I’d not heard before. It’s quite lovely

Agree … it’s a bit of an oddity on this album and the quality of the track in relation to the rest of CdmP is poor … it’s a jarring experience
