It's a venue that some of us know well from the old days. Pimlico played there a number of times in the 90's, as did Mohair and also The Bluetones several times over the last few years. So we're no strangers to the place- and nor should you be either! There's a <a href="http://www.facebook.com/events/138202052957074/" target="_blank">Facebook event page</a> where you can find more details, and tickets can be bought in advance from <a href="http://www.ticketweb.co.uk/user/?region=gb_south&query=detail&event=483984&interface=" target="_blank">here</a> .<br />
<br />
It's been mentioned that some people have had problems getting hold of the album from a couple of major online retailers. Well, it's been looked into and apparently it's something to do with making up numbers to order in bulk from the distributor (the middle-men between the record company and the shops). Amazon now have stocks of the <a href="http://www.amazon.co.uk/Are-We-Red-Inspectors/dp/B005UJAWQS/ref=sr_1_1?s=music&ie=UTF8&qid=1327083468&sr=1-1" target="_blank">CD</a> (not many, it has to be said) and reckon they'll have the vinyl in sometime after the 26th. HMV now claim to be shipping the vinyl "within 1 to 2 weeks" though they do carry stock of the <a href="http://hmv.com/hmvweb/displayProductDetails.do?sku=420165" target="_blank">CD</a>. The best place to be sure of getting the vinyl (which is very lovely both to look at and to listen to) is the <a href="http://acidjazz.bigcartel.com/" target="_blank">Acid Jazz shop</a> . They've got lots of special offers on at the moment- have a look! Their <a href="http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/RED-INSPECTORS-we-red-inspectors-we-VINYL-andy-lewis-MOD-LP-/370574261816?pt=UK_Records&hash=item5647f27e38#ht_775wt_1123" target="_blank">Ebay shop</a> has the vinyl and the CD too.<br />
<br />
Of course, you can always <a href="http://itunes.apple.com/us/album/are-we-the-red-inspectors/id493533191" target="_blank">download it from iTunes</a> too... but I doubt you'd settle for mere bits of data- you really want the physical product!The Red Inspectorshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16046748706905355639noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4177563782170468319.post-85269061801708555742012-01-07T03:29:00.000-08:002012-01-07T03:29:13.491-08:00Where to buy The Red Inspectors album...There have been a few enquiries as to the best place to buy a copy of <i>Are We The Red Inspectors? Are We? </i>The obvious answer to this is "your local independent record shop", but sadly these kind of places are few and far between these days. Nonetheless, if you're lucky enough to live near such a thing, drop in and place an order. If you do it this weekend, it ought to be there on the day of release, January 16th. Tell them it's out on Acid Jazz records, catalogue number AJX LP (or CD) 267.<br />
<br />
If you no longer live near a record shop, or you live outside the UK, then there are a number of mail order options. Visit <a href="http://www.heyday-mo.com/catalog/index.php?_a=product&product_id=11235" target="_blank">Heyday Mail Order</a> , <a href="http://hmv.com/hmvweb/displayProductDetails.do?sku=420163" target="_blank">HMV's online store</a> or <a href="http://www.juno.co.uk/products/are-we-the-red-inspectors-are-we/438114-01/" target="_blank">juno.co.uk</a> . <a href="http://www.amazon.co.uk/Are-We-Red-Inspectors-VINYL/dp/B005UJB6O0" target="_blank">Amazon</a> will also be stocking it, and it will also be available direct from Acid Jazz via their <a href="http://stores.ebay.co.uk/ACID-JAZZ-Shop?_trksid=p4340.l2563" target="_blank">eBay shop</a>.<br />
<br />
If you do the whole digital download thing, then it will be available on iTunes. Just search on the Apple iTunes music store for Red Inspectors.<br />
<br />
Don't forget, The Red Inspectors are playing live at London's Borderline on January 12th, and Bedford Esquires on February 4th.The Red Inspectorshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16046748706905355639noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4177563782170468319.post-22669978313853408782012-01-02T05:46:00.000-08:002012-01-02T05:46:01.391-08:00London Gig-January 12th!<span class="Apple-style-span" style="-webkit-border-horizontal-spacing: 2px; -webkit-border-vertical-spacing: 2px; border-collapse: collapse; color: #333333; line-height: 13px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The Red Inspectors play their first London show at The Borderline London W1D 4JB on January 12th 2012 to promote their debut album <i>Are We The Red Inspectors?
