I did, too. It was expensive with having to pay extra shipping to the USA. I didn't "have" to have the autographed option, but I chose it anyway as I consider Graeme a friend.

They just mailed out the autographed ones either Thurs. or Friday. That means I won't be getting mine until later next week. Bummer!
In the mean time, I will just keep playing that new Dogs Of Peace album.

Here's how I rate the songs so far... I've done it on Love, like or don't like...
Track Listing: LIKE Lucy Fuhr DON'T LIKE 1917 - Fatherless Child N/A Overture 1418 DON'T LIKE A Mind Insane LOVE Reason Why LIKE Sun of Malachi LOVE Raise Our Hands LOVE Godz LOVE World In Black N/A Interlude 23 LOVE Across the Moon
As you can see the first half I'm not that keen on and I was a little concerned that I'd get the same feel for the whole album, but the second half is superb. (the two N/A's are instrumentals). Sun Of Malachi has lots of brilliant things in it, but it's 15 minutes long and I liked more than I loved.
World In Black and Across The Moon are probably my favourite two tracks, but lots of the tracks are great so it's difficult to choose. As My Awesome Timothy has said, this will probably make my top 3 Stairway albums.

There is a song to put on skip right there. I have yet to hear a song that I truly felt NEEDED to be that long.

Will do my ratings when I've listened to it a bit more..... interesting how are tastes differ, I really like the '1917 - Fatherless Child' song!!!

I'm not sure yet. I might go if the time is right for the family and if cash is not a problem. Might be a last minute thing for me. Let's keep in touch. Maybe we can meet up there.

Okay... confession time... Never heard of Stairway... When I looked 'em up on Spotify---all I heard was synth/ethereal music... Did I miss something?

Yes, you have. They are not a clone, but they are probably the closest you will find in the Christian scene to the Scorpions.

I took a quick look on Spotify and couldn't find any of their albums. The do have 5 other albums (in addition to the new one). It looks like you might need to check them out on youtube instead of Spotify.
These are their previous albums
No Rest - No Mercy 1993 Bleeding Heart 1999 On Hallowed Ground 2002 The Other Side of Midnight 2006 Interregnum 2010

I actually managed to make it to 13 minutes. Even then, I was well over the song. I will probably not sync that one to my MP3 player.
The rest of the album sounds incredible!
