PO SOON: Kruder & Dorfmeister - The K&D Sessions [New 5-LP Box Set]

I have the original (if only I had purchased that extra copy when they were around $25 on Amazon), but I will still be picking up this when it becomes available. An absolute classic and one of my favorites of all-time. This was huge when it was released and it still remains timeless.

"The !K7 label is reissuing The K&D Sessions, a 1998 compilation of original tracks, dubs and remixes by Peter Kruder and Richard Dorfmeister that became a staple of bleary-eyed and blunted after-parties, soothing weary ears with their bass-heavy, downbeat moods drawing on funk, jazz, hip hop, dub and d’n'b.

The compilation has never been officially available digitally and has long since been deleted on vinyl, with copies going for big money when they do pop up. !K7 have spent painstaking years searching for the original rights holders and clearing the licenses in order to bring the album back in print, with a mastered-for-iTunes version coming on November 17 and a huge 5xLP vinyl box set and 2xCD reissue coming early next year, along with an audiophile quality digital version.

All new versions of the album feature three tracks not available on the original issue."

Anybody know of a spot where this is still available? Preferably in the US/NA, but I'll take what I can get at this point.

 

I pre-ordered mine from Amazon US a month ago.  They charged my card two nights ago.  Have you tried them?  Price went down $18 since I placed my order and I got that pre-order price guarantee.  Charged me $47.99 plus tax.

 

EDIT: Nevermind.  Couldn't find it.  Guess it is sold out there.  Here is a link to the item page from my order: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00THZVYJA/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o03_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Thanks for the responses. Buying from the label, with shipping, is over $90US because it's such a heavy package and Amazon and Barnes & Noble are both sold out. Pisser.

 

It's up at Amoeba for $50 and includes free shipping:

I gave my copy a listen last night and it sounds absolutely fantastic.

It has been "currently unavailable" for me there all afternoon, but I will keep trying. Thanks, RPM.

If anyone is still looking, they have this on Barnes & Noble with shipping in 1-2 weeks. It could be a long shot maybe worth a try.

That's been up for a while plus they cancelled my order twice. I don't think they're getting it in.

Sorry about that Whip Wilson. I'll continue to keep an eye out for any other locations that might have it.

I can't believe that this pressing would be THAT limited such that it is completely sold out everywhere (except for secondary market)...

Don't apologize at all, friend. I really appreciate the thought. Keeping my eyes peeled as well.

For anyone still looking for a copy, I recently purchased one from a distro called Love Vinyl Records for ~60 after shipping. He had some listed on ebay, but I just bought it from his main site. It arrived about an hour ago, so I can confirm it is the right version and actually will ship

 

It looks like he still has copies for sale here:
