Neal's New Album "The Calling"

[brandonx76]

Got mine in the mail today. Great Instrumental album with a lot of variety! Still listening trying to decide my favorite but The Calling is not it so far. Who knows?

I got my CD yesterday & have only listened on my iMac while working. I like what I hear so far! A nice variety of flavors.

How'd you guys get your Physical CD's before the October prerelease orders

Check their cellphone emails for crank shots.

.in all seriousness, this sounds like one of Neal's best solo albums

Here's an image of the the inside & outside of the CD packaging. Click image to blow up.

Very cool. Nice looking package, thanks for sharing.

I'm sorry, with recent events of Neal and his package, I couldn't help but to chuckle at your post!

In all seriousness, I can't wait to get my copy.

I swear, my comment was purely about the CD.

Neal's website kicked their notification into gear today about pre-orders and preview samples on the website. Looks like pre-orders are available through iTunes. I'm on the fence about doing the digital download vs. having the CD.

so it is coming out July 30th? or October? The live nation link is no longer available.

**update**

although the live nation link is no longer available, ,I checked order status, now says ": AVAILABLE 10/19/2012 12:00:00 AM"

that sucks...

I stopped buying cds almost 3 years ago. I do not miss carrying them around at all. I have two phillips 8 gb mp3 players. Each holds well over 100 cds. Plus I keep everything on my computer and my computer backed up once a month on an extenal harddrive. I found not enough difference in sound to make a fuss over.

Generally I don't buy CD's anymore. I'm not really a collector, but Neal and Journey are a special case for me. I keep thinking one day I'll get them signed and have them framed or something along those lines.

Did anyone other than me order this from live nation?

When I prepurchased mine a few weeks ago, the invoice said it would be released 31 July, which it now is, but I still can't find the download.

Brandon's post above says his Live Nation order status was updated to Oct 19.

OCTOBER!!!

Well, I might have to borrow some files before then. My invoice they gave me says July 31 so I'll try to pressure them.

Why do you suppose they want to keep it in the can so long if it is already finished?
