Yay! I received my copy of Chitose’s latest live double CD album, “Fuyu no Hainumikaze”, in the mail a couple of days ago. I’m listening to it now (the 1st disc) and it’s awesome! The arrangements seem to be close to the originals (I’ll have to give it another listen to make sure) and the mixture of songs from her indies days to her major label ones add a nice tempo to the album. I have the initial pressing of the album which came with a special (a CD insert and not a separate) booklet which adds a couple more centimeters to the jewel case. Also included is an interview with Chitose as well as special photos taken at the concert and elsewhere. I haven’t ordered the DVD yet since there wasn’t an initial pressing made for it, but I’ll order it soon enough. ;)
Posted by Richie at 11:27 PMOups, my last post had a problem because of a smiley. Anyway, I was just wondering why I would buy a CD I can't listen to because I have a Mac (yup, the CD can't be played on a Mac or Linux). I buy a CD, and I want to rip it in AAC so that I can listen to it on my iPod. Period. Where have our personal rights gone ??
If any of you have an idea of how I could play this live on my Mac...
I went to Tower Records yesterday and listened to the first CD of this incredible Live. I would have bought it... if it wasn't copy protected >_

I won't post this on the main page and will instead look forward to the day when I can write an entry regarding good news for the young couple. :)
Liz: Thank you for the comment. :)
