My brother (who is a Philly soul expert) hipped me to this some time ago, but he says the release date keeps getting pushed back. We'll see if it really comes out on Jan. 1.

Dusty Groove now has it for sale ($129.99): http://www.dustygroove.com/item.php?id=m8bzrjmygq&ref=index.php Individual tracks can be downloaded on iTunes or you can download the whole package on iTunes for more than DG is selling the physical item.

Amazon says it will be released on 1/1/13. Will wait to see what import-cd, moviemars and the other resellers can do on the price.

Down to $109.75 on Amazon for the box set now that it is actually released. Still way too rich for my blood.
