If I'm reading this right, the 10" vinyl contains just one track, Bridge From The Future. Is this right? The full concert track list is on the 2 x CDs not on vinyl.
A:
Bridge From The Future (Part 1)
B:
Bridge From The Future (Part 2)

They charge when shipping. You can trust this shop, I ordered for years and many times there.
Oh, that's good to know, their FAQ says "Hinweis: Die Belastung der Kreditkarte erfolgt zum Zeitpunkt der Bestellung." which led me to believe that I'm charged at the time of ordering.

I think it depends on how you pay. JPC already charged me when I paid with Paypal. Creditcard is probably later.

Given however that the video was also sourced from the SVT TV feed how is a "director's cut" possible then?
There would have been multiple camera angles available to the live TV broadcast director - most of which were used, but not necessarily at the best time after the fact. All angles were recorded simultaneously, so they can be used for the Blu-Ray in whatever order as and when the director (or JMJ) decide when they fit better than when they were used live. The source is the same, but the use of whichever angle can now be changed at will.

Correct. The Bridge From The Future track is split over two sides of 10" vinyl. I could be wrong, but I would be quite surprised if the full concert won't make vinyl at some point later on. The lead-time for vinyl is months ahead, so Sony might wait and see how sales are before committing.

Ah ok, you said "feed" which I understood as "whatever they actually broadcasted". Well I just hope the first "The Opening" fireworks are there. And that they fixed Jarre miming the laser harp a quarter note too early (man would I like to know what happened there, both on rehearsals and on the actual show)

I think I'd like that blue vinyl as a CD (or digital download) instead

On one hand, yes a digital copy would have been preferably, on the other... Do we really want another digital master by Deadwater rather than just ripping the LP?

Not a fan of vinyl rips. Also that track doesn't have drums so Perreau's master wouldn't be as terrible

The blue vinyl and it's exclusive audio is one of the main incentives to buy the box set (along with the coffee table book of course).

I'd really like Bridge From The Future as a digital download too. In many ways, this release is not *that* exciting for me in the sense that I've watched the YouTube loads of times and ripped the soundtrack as MP3 so I have the music "as live" already, including the Jean-Paul Jarre finale. The photobook and Bridge From The Future are the main things for me. And a shame there is no making of bonus film.

It might also depend on the country you order from. For me from Germany it might be another situation.

I would also prefer a digital version of this and especially without the track being split into two parts. It's the same if "Waiting For Cousteau" would have been split into two parts and put on two sides of a vinyl. Well, for the Cousteau album they cut half of the piece away to make it fit onto one LP side, which of course is also a bad solution. But you could get the full track on CD.

Maybe it was one of the reason why he wore those over-ear headphones, some technical issue about he listening to the rest of the music and himself.

Well it seemed like the cues in his headphones were off by a quarter note. And they didn't fix it after rehearsals. I can't comprehend this
