Marianne goes digital

Exciting days! All of Marianne's 4 albums are now available in digital format on the excellent Bandcamp website, for the very reasonable price of 6.50 GBP each. If you prefer the highest quality MP3s, want your music in lossless FLAC format or need Ogg Vorbis for your Linux system, you have the choice (including other formats as well such as AAC).

All the downloads include

• a complete PDF booklet of liner notes and CD tray inserts
• embedded cover art

The albums also come with 1 or 2 bonus live videos from the Acoustic Harvest DVD - you can preview them on our Video page. Jade's Fly On Strangewings and Marianne's Circulus collaboration, The Gathering, even have, embedded in the digital files, the lyrics which are viewable with suitable devices/software (such as Windows Media Player).

So, plenty of bang for your buck!

If you're still a fan of the small plastic disc, they are still available in Marianne's shop. Or why not consider Marianne's CD + download bundles (including the above extras) - on offer from Marianne's Bandcamp pages for only 1.50 GBP more than the price of the CD on its own. Bargain!

And that's not all …

Since Marianne is offering streaming of all the tracks on all her albums at Bandcamp.com, it seems silly not to do so here as well. So, head over to the Audio page to listen, sing along, tap your toes and then listen some more.

All streams are low-ish quality 128kbps MP3 but the MP3 downloads at Bandcamp are of the highest quality, 320kbps. (Other formats are also available).

Marianne playing live, 5th June 2011

On Sunday 5th June 2011 Marianne Segal and Friends will be playing live as part of an outdoor music and crafts day at The Watermill Theatre in Bagnor, Newbury, Berkshire, RG20 8AE.

The music starts around midday with The Aldbrickham Country Dance Band playing an uplifting set of jigs and reels and Marianne will be joining the Band for some songs as well as doing an acoustic set during the afternoon. The music finishes around 3.45 pm.

There are also Arts and Crafts for sale, lots of good food and a bar, with games for children. All in all, a good family day out - lots of fun, good music and well organised.

Korean reissues on CD and other new stock in our shop

Just in from South Korea, some very special CD reissues (limited editions of 300) of Jade's Fly On Strangewings and Dave Waite & Marianne Segal's Paper Flowers, both released in January 2011. Both come in lovely matt card gatefold sleeves with obi (not pictured) and fold-out liner notes. The Jade CD also includes 2 posters, one of the original gatefold LP album cover, the other of a colour photo from Jade's 1970 photo session on Hampstead Heath. Click the links above for details. We only have a few of each so don't delay.

Also, we now stock the 2009 Sunbeam Records double CD reissue of Fly On Strangewings and, back in stock, we have the 2008 Lightning Tree deluxe edition CD reissue of the Jade album at just £10.00 plus shipping.
