I haven't stopped listening to this album since it was released.

Will have to set up a cross fade the tracks into each other - not ideal but already having to edit back in DITD and SBM from.the Japanese version on my iTunes which will need some touching up. Pretty shoddy when they're asking people to buy multiple colours of vinyl and multiple digital formats. Someone should have had a proper listen to the master. Maybe they dropped Live Forever because Noel has been playing it?

This immediate heavy discounting of everything on release week is such a slap in the face to anyone who pre-ordered. I'm really glad I only bought the standard CD. I've learnt in recent times to not bother pre-ordering anything from Liam or Noels websites, unless its obviously very limited. I was in HMV earlier today and the 'deluxe' CD is light as a feather, didn't feel deluxe at all! The vinyl didn't seem that great either, considering the Β£55 price tag! Same reason I only ordered the deluxe CS CD. Love you Noel, but not enough to pay your pre-order surcharge on every conceivable format. I'll pick up the vinyl later for half the current price. This whole thing now about getting you to pre-order an album and then releasing different versions in the first week of release to make you buy it again is getting ridiculous. I no longer pre-order albums - it's best to wait and see what extras you can get when they add an extra version after it's been released! I don't mind ending up with multiple copies of my favourite albums over the years if the re-issue extras are worth it but asking people to buy multiple copies of a brand new album that might not end up being well regarded is too much. I'm out!

I'm out! I'm not following other artists closely enough when they release new stuff, but is this only a new Gallagher-scam? I really want to call it a scam, I pre-ordered two vinyl versions and now seeing the yellow one discounted and then some other exclusive stuff getting released in the release week just sucks. Last pre-order with Noel or Liam, gonna wait until after the release next time.

That's excellent news and it looks like another number one album for Liam then.

In even more words than he has already described it. ..erm...wow...yawn. Get the savvy management team a nice new big comfy stall for the milking...they must be tired by now. Next Month win the option to see a video of the people working in the factory sing exclusive Liam tracks while burning the cds. You can enter by only buying 3 verified versions of the formats of the gig.

"Knebworth 2022" is now 2,166 units ahead of the Hives Happily the Hives are a class act and as such number 1 and 2 albums in either way being decent is a win win in my book

Unacceptable that this strong version of Better Days and Live Forever were dropped from the album. You can retrieve them here

I see that Banquet Records have more signed copies available after the others had sold out.

Absolute class version of C'mon You Know. This song really shines live. I fully agree that its by far the best version of it to date, and the biggest improvement of any K22 track over the original. First time ive genuinely really liked the song.

Hopefully my Japanese version of the album should be here on Monday according to an email I've just had. The only down side is paying the extra charges thanks to bloody Brexit.

I'm listening to K22 every day and I'm really enjoying it tremendously. I also added Better Days and Live Forever to my playlist and rearranged the setlist as originally. I like that in this live the songs sound like a current version of "Live By The Sea" and I like that Liam's voice is a bit hoarse.

I have to think at some point, we're gonna get presented with a "deluxe" edition with the entire set. So many ways to sell this product now.

So, do people reckon it will hold on to the UK #1 spot?

So, do people reckon it will hold on to the UK #1 spot? Liam against the Hives? It should be. I don't think The Hives have had a #1 album in the UK album charts

I only asked the other day if The Hives were big in the UK because at that point the gap between them and Liam wasn't that big.

#1 official! Well done LG. Pretty bloody immense - that's a serious achievement. Am I also correct in the fact the only tune not available via cd or YouTube (official or decent quality) is WMWN?
