Vinyl and reviews

Finally, the vinyl version of Comicopera is in the house. And what a nice package it is, with cover by Alfreda Benge (as usual) (more pictures here)!
I get the impression that more and more people prefer material proof of their purchase, and talking to a shop owner the other day, he told me he earned more on vinyl sales now, than CDs. Norwegian The Aller Værste ("The Very Worst") were quite popular in the late 70s early 80s, and the vinyl version of their live album "Live 1980" (Kippers, 2007), sold out in a couple of days. "Vinyl is the new mp3"!
I'm still looking for reviews of Comicopera. Anybody seen a bad one? Swedish newspaper "Dagens Nyheter" describes Robert as " A charming bearded pixie" (my translation). Guess he can live with that. More reviews here.
