Damn I must admit to sleeping on this new Kidd. He’s got some goodies for us on that page.

Besides being called ‘Into the Public Domain’, it’s apparently also released under public-domain license. Pretty cool! And there’s a CD version as well.

I ordered my CD over a month ago and have not received it, and my inquiry about it went unanswered as well. What has everyone else’s experience been?

Those other two CDs that came out last year, I didn’t have any problems getting them quickly.

The ETA date for mine came and went, I used the links provided for issues with delivery to report the issue, got a response and apology, and had the CDs about a week or 10 days after that. Plus, there was a notebook with album cover design, and a couple other little bonus items included. Send them a note, you’ll get it.

That’s exactly what happened to me when I order the Guyatone/LG350 CD..

Since then they have added the following note.

No overseas orders at this current time. We appreciate your understanding and are working towards a solution.

So far I’ve reached out twice and have not received my item or a response. I’ll do what you said.

I ordered through Bandcamp. They might have pushed mine through.

No oversea orders are such a pity… :sleepy_face:
One nation needs worldwide service, or some stations to deliver the funk across da one… LOVE !:sparkles::sparkles::sparkles:

My order is now nearly 3 months old. Two inquiries directly to the artist went on answered. My first inquiry to Bandcamp also went unanswered. I just reached out to bandcamp a second time today.

What is this, 2002? Back then I was desensitized to the reality of items simply getting lost or not arriving or sellers being sketchy. But I think I have about a 100% success rate ordering things online over the past decade or so. It’s frustrating that this has to be the one to break that streak.

I have Michael’s new CD. I believe it’s an EP featuring music that he plays with a new instrument, called a Metatone? (Correct me, if I’m wrong!) It’s, in my opinion, another cool entry to the P-Funk canon’s most recent chapter.

It’s frustrating when they don’t even reply. Especially when it’s an artist you wanna support.

Are you talking about the Guyatone/LG350 EP?
