Am I delusional to think, if some DVDs are OK that maybe some CDs are OK? I suppose I am delusional. But I was really looking forward to buying this new CD edition, just as another small ray of happiness in dark times. But maybe I'm setting myself up for frustration.

If you don't already have it, you could buy the Deluxe Talk is Cheap at a nice discount as there's currently another price drop now back down to just $72->Cheap Keith.
Bought it back in June at just $41, but even at $72 seems a bargain as the list price is $174.00. Maybe it will drop even further, and if it gets back down to near $41 I'm going to grab another.

As for this Hollywood Palladium Deluxe, originally the strategy was to hold out for a massive sale, but with all the screw ups (warped vinyl, dvd doesn't play, etc.) not sure it's worth the gamble at even a 75% discount.

Wow....that IS a price drop! Thanks for the head's up. I just have the 2CD Talk is Cheap....but man, that $72 is tempting.

Fyi ... my signed Keith mini poster showed up at my door in London today.
It looks great!

Unfortunately, I can’t.
I’m not signed up for any photo sites.
I can email you a pic if you want to post it.

You can do it without signing up for example at [imgbb.com]

Or sure, you can email it to me, I am just curious as still awaiting mine from 2nd batch. Thanks!

OK, can anyone see this?

Excellent. Funny how Keith combined his K and e into one. But it still looks great.

Amazing piece!

Mine seems to have departed Tokyo Haneda airport twice now...

Agree with slewan, some of the earlier photos here showed a bit of wear on the sharpie mark.

My mail lady was like, you are getting mail from Keith Richards now?




She is a Stones fan too. I told her, yeah, send Keef thirty or so dollars and you can get mail from him too!

Well, at least now we know where he is self-isolating!

I caved in (as usual) and got the Deluxe box set. Sounds good (the snare is too high in the mix for my liking, though).

Haven't tried the dvd yet...

Nine to ten that it cannot be played.

I mentioned it in the store where I bought it, and they said no one had complained so far.

That's most likely because the people who bought it already have the dvd, and didn't bother to check yet, though

The vinyl records sound good, and none of them are warped.

My signature poster arrived today (finally!) The perfect size for storage or framing

Very cool item. I contacted the support for the warped record - they're sending a replacement.

Concerning the DVD: when you charge the disk and get a black screen, try the menu button. That worked for me!

Strange times indeed.

According to USPS tracking, my poster was in Helsinki already on November 26, but now seems to have departed Tokyo Haneda again yesterday (the third time now that it has "left Haneda" and supposedly be on its way to the destination)

If you're lucky, maybe Keith is adding another signature at every stop!

My dvd from the deluxe Box is playing fine.

That's great, Stoneswolf

UrbanSteel: have you tried the "menu" button to solve the DVD problem?

The menu does not continue after the first six tracks.

The DVD is not playable, not on my PC, not on my external Blu-ray player and not on my Home system.

The good old DVD Decrypter fixed for the moment the problem, he allowed a good rip and i did burn the dvd with AShampoo Burning Studio 16.

Strangely enoiugh my DVD was playing on my external Blu-ray again after an extremely slow DVD rip via DVD Decrypter. On my regular DVD-player it does not start up and on my Home system it does not continue in the menu as Time Is On My side.
The ripped DVDr (clone) plays perfectly on all three of my devices.

I second Jos on that one.
I confirm that the DVD took time to load and then freezed.
I've never seen to this day such a lame production and I'm not talking only about the DVD, but the CD as well.What they did for the introduction of Whip it Up is beyond me.If you add that some people get warped vinyls and that some deluxe book have their corners fold
one cannot congratulate the guys who did the release.
That's not what we should expect from a Deluxe thing.
Last but not least, good luck for the new information, the answer I've got from them is not satisfying as well.

HMN

Sad to read .... There were no pressing
faults with Gotta Get A Grip CD and 12" single ..... hhhaaaaaaa

I'm on Make No Mistake now. The DVD is still playing nicely. Where in the show is it that it may stop?

It started to skip during Time Is On My Side. Still skipping on Big Enough
