STEWART COPELAND

Apologies if this has been covered....but this *may* be new news.

So I'm reading the September '07 issue of Modern Drummer which showed up last night (Ex-Sting session guy Josh Freese on cover) and on pages 74-75 there's a gatefold spread of our esteemed leader behind the Police tour setup announcing:

"The Stewart Copeland Anthology" CD in-stores August 14, 2007 (?!?!)

"From dancing the Ndele Banga with the Samburu of Tanzania, to elbowing royalty on the polo fields of Cirenceester, to sweaty jam session in Havana clip joints and black tie curtain calls at opera premiers, strange things keep on happening to me.

Contained on this album are some of the musical adventures that I've had. Roughly chronological, it starts with the callow charm of Klark Kent, and ends up with some of the slicker things that I have figured out after four decades of obsession with music. - Stewart Copeland"

Only other info I could find is:

Nothing on Amazon, etc....record label is Koch records.

Album cover appears to be the Rhythmatist on the horse riding toward a tornado on a green field. Neat.

Oh yeah-- "For more info visit www.stewartcopeland.net". LOL.

Hmmmm interesting.

Have to keep looking for more info. That would be nice though, a Stewart collection....Sweet !

Thanks Man!


Cheers.

There was an earlier post about it..... I dunno how to post the link but it's available for pre order on amazon in the UK.

What are you talking about? I have pre-ordered my copy on amazon.com a month ago!

This is available for pre-order on Amazon as The Stewart Copeland Collection. I saw it for $3 cheaper on a different site, but I can't recall which one right now. Google "Stewart Copeland Collection" and I think you will find it.

Here's the link for ordering it in the US:
http://www.amazon.com/Stewart-Copeland- ... 369&sr=8-3

Here's the link that offers the CD for a little less than Amazon:
http://www.artistdirect.com/nad/store/a ... 15,00.html

Never ordered from Artist Direct so I do not know if they are any good, reliable, trustworthy, etc.

I'm waiting for the ok from Stewart manager to upload everything concerning this new release with cover artwork and tracklist.
It's a great cd!

... but it seems it's not about time yet; I guess the date will be delayed a little.

Delay?!?!?! AUUUUUUUUGGGGGHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Well, I guess you couldn't tell Michaelangelo to hurry up with his David

I just hope there'll be something on there us completists don't already have.

I mean, I'll buy it no matter what, but I'd love for at least SOMETHING not previously released to at last surface!

Rare video tracks?
Previously unreleased tracks?
Incredible unpublished pictures? (I am sure at least the package will be interesting, given that Stew's solo work rarely contains many pictures)

Whatever, it works for us!

There is something that has never appeared commercially speaking...
