Anyone actually get a proper hard copy of Solitary. I paid my money via the website but was messed around and eventually sent mp3's which really pissed me off. Regardless what I'm after is high quality scans of the rear tray artwork. They sent me the front cover artwork but no rear tray despite my several requests.

I meant to mention it to Don when I met him in 2008 but forgot. I bet he didn't even know as the guy from the website was handling it and told me that he'd sent the cd which never arrived then he claimed he sent another which also never arrived...I call bullshit on that.

Anyways I've got the artwork now. Thanks.

And I am more than willing to send mp3's to anyone who wants the album.]]> JIMMY AGATES NoticeboardSun, 13 Jan 2013 11:05:56 +1100 http://www.melodicrock.com/phorum52/read.php?1,926391,926613#msg-926613 http://www.melodicrock.com/phorum52/read.php?1,926391,926613#msg-926613
"I think what happened is they only pressed a certain amount and sold them only at concerts and probably had a small leftover inventory to sell online and they received more orders than CD's they had left but were waiting to see if they had enough orders to do a 2nd pressing and when they didn't they just sent mp3's instead."

It's obvious they over-sold on the website because I ordered a CD and they sent an email saying they couldn't finish the CD's and gave me (and others) MP3's are pretty much proof of that.

There's no conspiracy here, it just is what it is. They wanted to sell off their inventory and got too many orders, but I did have to wait almost 3 months for the mp3's so there is a little more to it, I think, either some of the worst customer service ever or they were just compiling orders to see if it was worth it to do another pressing.]]> Troy NoticeboardSun, 13 Jan 2013 04:53:47 +1100 http://www.melodicrock.com/phorum52/read.php?1,926391,926575#msg-926575 http://www.melodicrock.com/phorum52/read.php?1,926391,926575#msg-926575 Scott NoticeboardSat, 12 Jan 2013 19:26:53 +1100 http://www.melodicrock.com/phorum52/read.php?1,926391,926571#msg-926571 http://www.melodicrock.com/phorum52/read.php?1,926391,926571#msg-926571
Solitary is a 2008 acoustic rock album by Don Dokken (singer of his original band Dokken). The album was only sold to fans attending his tour for the album. It was released in October 21, 2008, exactly eighteen years after his first solo album, Up from the Ashes.]]> Troy NoticeboardSat, 12 Jan 2013 15:51:23 +1100 http://www.melodicrock.com/phorum52/read.php?1,926391,926570#msg-926570 http://www.melodicrock.com/phorum52/read.php?1,926391,926570#msg-926570 Troy NoticeboardSat, 12 Jan 2013 15:50:38 +1100 http://www.melodicrock.com/phorum52/read.php?1,926391,926569#msg-926569 http://www.melodicrock.com/phorum52/read.php?1,926391,926569#msg-926569 Ross S.

I filed a claim with my credit card and got my credit back since I ordered a CD not mp3 files.]]> Troy NoticeboardSat, 12 Jan 2013 06:50:39 +1100 http://www.melodicrock.com/phorum52/read.php?1,926391,926464#msg-926464 http://www.melodicrock.com/phorum52/read.php?1,926391,926464#msg-926464
