sorry to hear about your problems.

My copies of both the 7" and the CD/book arrived this morning. I'll listen to them this evening and report back.

I can't play the 7" for a while, as my turntable is fucked up, but I've listened to the Ambient Loop for Vancouver CD, and it is fantastic. I don't think it's solo Lee, there are Text of Light members (Alan Licht, Christian Marclay and William Hooker?) on there too, I think, and ambient ToL is a fairly good reference point for what it's like. "Glacial" is a good word too. If you imagine a film about Japanese fishermen, with lots of shots of gently rolling ocean waves, and then imagine the soundtrack to that as played by ToL, and if you like what you're imagining, then there's a good chance you'll like this CD.

I already had two copies of Road Movies before ordering this book/cd set, so a big question for me was "Is the cd good enough to make it worthwhile me having a third copy of the book?". Without any doubt, the answer is yes.

Is the cd different then the 7''?

I don't want to risk playing the 7" on my damaged turntable, so I can't tell anything about it. I don't think that it will be the exactly same as the CD, but I think they are related.

The info on the main label of the 7" is:

LR: gtr, tapes, edit, mix
Alan Licht: gtr on 3
Christian Marclay: turntables on 3
William Hooker: drums on 4

rec/mix Echo Canyon NYC
assistance: Aaron Mullen
label curator: Don Goede

A1: 1:07
A2: 3:46
B1: 4:40
B2: 1:04

The other label has a smaller reproduction of the screen print that the single is packaged with. The whole thing is in a clear plastic sleeve.

The cd is one track, 53:44 long, and comes in a clear plastic sleeve slipped in the back of the standard 10th anniversary edition of Road Movies. The label is a copy of the donkey picture that is on the cover of the second edition of the book. The only information that it gives is the title and that the cd is to accompany the Road Movies book

Thanks :)
I jyst hoped they were the same so i wouldn't have to buy road movies again.

Lee was ALWAYS Important!!! And don't you ever forget it.
