New-Info Thread

[Johnny Stew]

We have a lot of info coming in fast and furiously. So much, that I'm sure a lot of people are having trouble keeping up!
I'm going to try and collect the big stuff here, to make info easily accessible.
Please feel free to add to this thread, whenever new info comes along.
(I'd like to keep this thread streamlined for the sake of clarity, so to that end, please try to keep it free of off-topic posts.)

So far, this is what we know....

*The new album, titled 'Say You Will,' will be released in the US on April 15th (and in other countries on April 14th), and contains the tracks listed below.
The author of each track is listed after the title, as is the timing for each. Please note that these timings are based on the dummy (blank) files that were found on the various Peer2Peer file-sharing services (like WinMX and KaZaA), and may not be 100% accurate. (For example, the running time listed for "Peacekeeper" is off by about 33 seconds, based on the version which can be heard via AOL Music - First Listen.)

*At this moment (3/6/03), Amazon.com is offering the regular single disc version for $13.49 (29% off of the $18.98 list price), and a 2-disc limited edition version for $24.99 (11% off of the $27.98 list price).
Amazon.com has also listed a DVD-Audio (playable in *most* DVD players, but NOT in CD players) for $18.98.

An alternate version of the album will apparently be released in Japan, with an "exclusive bonus track"... but so far there is no further info on that item.

In regards to the 2-disc limited edition version offered by Amazon.com (and now, other online sites), there is currently no officially confirmed information about what the second disc contains, however it will most likely include the following:
"Not Make Believe" (a Stevie Nicks-penned song, not available on the album)
"Love Minus Zero/No Limit" (written by Bob Dylan)
"Peacekeeper" (live from AOL Sessions, 2/28/03)
"Say You Will" (live from AOL Sessions, 2/28/03)

The disc is also reported to contain enhanced video content (featuring live videos from the AOL Sessions), specially designed packaging, and a mini-poster.

*For five weeks (leading up to the release of 'Say You Will'), Reprise Records will be offering high-quality mp3s of 5 album tracks... one each week, for $1.49 apiece. You need a Paypal account to order the tracks, which are then sent via email. Once received, they're yours to listen to as often as you'd like, or to burn onto CD. Unfortunately this seems to be limited to US-residents only.
The selected tracks will be....
Week 1 (currently available): Peacekeeper
Week 2: Running Through The Garden
Week 3: Steal Your Heart Away
Week 4: Smile At You
Week 5: What's The World Coming To

*A large part of the album's promotion will be done in conjunction with AOL, featuring Fleetwood Mac as AOL's March Artist Of The Month.
The promotion includes the aforementioned AOL Music - First Listen preview of "Peacekeeper," a 'Say You Will' album listening party scheduled for April 14th, and an exclusive mini-concert at Sessions@AOL (Keyword: Sessions@AOL, or Keyword: Fleetwood Mac), scheduled for mid-March.
(Non-AOL subscribers, can also access this content at the links posted above.)

*Reprise & AOL are also sponsoring a contest to win a trip to Las Vegas, to meet Fleetwood Mac, and see them perform.

*Lastly, "Peacekeeper" has been designated as the first single, with many radio stations across the country already adding it to their playlists (be sure to listen for it!).
Reprise Records has supplied radio stations with two different promo-CDs featuring alternate versions of the track.
PRO-CD-101067 (in a standard black jewel case), contains the album version, and an edit.
PRO-CD-101078 (in a white case), contains a radio mix, and a radio mix edit.
(Thanks to Luke A. for the above info.)

It's unlikely that a commercially available single will be released in the US, but a European single release is always possible.
There's no word on whether the band will film a video to promote the track.

(***The AOL Music - First Listen version of "Peacekeeper" can also be found in mp3 format, thanks to Trin... either here or here.)

Well, I think that's all of the big stuff for now!
