Greetings, A brief trip to Tokyo... the Japanese TDF Soundtracks comes in a slightly thicker than normal jewel case. It does have the video on as a 'bonus track' and also a foldout poster insert (printed on a dull brown paper). Marketing sense would surely have put the video on the Euro/US release of the single! The best in-store display was in Virgin's stores. EMI Japan also (in their magazine) were also using the same publicity picture (the 'red backgourd' one used on the TC Helicon website). The day after we arrived we found 2004 Japan Concert flyers (on good quality glossy paper) at several record stores & the next day found 3 shops with large posters for the same concerts. No spare posters, but if anyone wants a Japanese flyer email us privately + you can have one for the cost of the postage. It's perhaps normal - but seems a little strange - that the Euro version of TDF Sountracks was also readily available in Tokyo shops and is much cheaper! Seems that all new Japanese CDs have a fixed price? Karl Bartos's new CD/vinyl was also readily available there. He was also on the cover of a Japanese music magazine last week - I think the interview is a straight translation of one from Europe. It really seems that Tokyo has a healthy regard for Karftwerk - great to see. __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
