DISCOTHEQUE ARCHIVES – THE BOOKS HAVE LANDED!
Somewhat elated, not to mention greatly relieved, that I’ve finally received copies of the new extended hardback edition of my Discotheque Archives book. Info/order link here: https://superweirdsubstance.com/product/greg-wilson-discotheque-archive-extended/
It looks (and feels) so good in the new format, the additional material and a further batch of Pete Fowler’s wonderful DJ illustrations adding extra weight, both actually and in terms of content. I’m so happy to finally get this out there – the process hasn’t been without its trials and tribulations, but to have the finished product in my hands is a Christmas present to myself (so sorry we weren't able to get it to everyone else ahead of Christmas - we did everything we possibly could, but the fates were against us).
Although, due to a frustrating series of printing delays, I’ve had to put the full launch back to the week commencing January 9th, all pre-orders will be despatched on Dec 28th, which, given the strike/bank holidays, is the next available postage day. So, for UK buyers, you can expect delivery ahead of the new year. The same goes for any additional pre-orders placed during the coming days, while stock remains available, which will also be processed in time for the Dec 28th mail out.
Overseas packages, as I’m sure you understand, will take a little longer to arrive. I’ve been pleasantly surprised by just how many pre-orders have come from outside of the UK - around a third of the total quantity, with the US and Australia especially strong. It’s a buzz to see the far flung places, as well as all those closer to home, on the address labels, knowing that all the packages will soon be heading off to their various destinations.
Let me know when they’re safely with you.
Have a great Christmas.
