I've been listening to it for 47 years and still occasionally find something in there I hadn't noticed before. The skill and commitment that went into that album is phenomenal.

Wikipedia has the release date at March 1.
I saw them in Chicago on March 7, having just bought the album.

This Day in Rock is notorious about getting the dates wrong. I always check it against Wikipedia.

They say it's today too.

I mean, there's no guarantee that Wikipedia is right, but it does have the advantage of numbers on its side. There are so many people poring over its entries.

Thanks for the thread anyway.
