This might have already been covered, but did anyone notice they spelled "Kamera" with a C and not a K on the tracklist:

 

 

DISC 3: I’m The Man Who Loves You (live) / The Good Part / Cars Can’t Escape / Camera / Handshake Drugs (First Version) / A Magazine Called Sunset

That's because the alternate version from the More Like The Moon/Australian EP (which I'm sure this is) is spelled Camera.

Or you could do what I did...buy the vinyl from that company that had the good price, then have buyer's remorse about not getting it from Kung Fu so I could get entered into the drawings and get the T-shirt, so place a second order for the CD/shirt bundle. On second thought, maybe no one else should follow my lead.

the Vinyl comes with a digital download..which you could techinically just burn to your own CDS if you want.

 

I personally don't listen to CDs..so I have no need for a CD at all.

 

Having the Extra Large Artwork, linear notes,  of the Viynl is a huge reason for that purchase, depsite it having fewer actual tracks.

 

the price is the obvious factor...but if you are on this website, I would imagine you are more then willing to spend $70+ bucks on a limited edition wilco recording.

 

Despite having most of the tracks, I don't have ANY of these tracks on Vinyl...which is what finally sold me.

so it looks like CD version has a larger  book  63 pages VS 32 (most likely due to the fact that there is a track by track notes) and the vinyl is missing all the live tracks.

 

I wonder if the "digital copy" will come with a digital version of the CD booklet

My vinyl copy arrived today. I took a quick look at it before heading off to work and it looks mighty nice. The box and its contents resemble the Kicking Television vinyl box. However, the booklet inside is a lot nicer. Can't wait to spin these later tonight.

So it looks like Warner has not added the downloads to their website yet. I just redeemed my card and everything that should be there is not. I've just sent them an e-mail letting them know that the download is missing. Hopefully it will be rectified soon.

 

On a brighter note, the vinyl is sounding wonderful! I can truly say that I have not been as captivated by a collection of music as I am right now with this set. And to think I contemplated even purchasing this release at all...

I would imagine the digital tracks won't be added until the release date..or at least a little closer. You got it a week early!

 

So does the booklet inside the vinyl mention anything about the live tracks that appear only on the CD?
