Open for business!

With enormous gratitude to Raymond Reithmeier for giving me the heads-up!

As previously reported by Henry Potts and myself last week, the online store for Trevor's back catalog is now live and can be accessed via this link.

What is amazing to behold is the film music composed by Trevor Rabin promo release (the subject of a previous entry back in 2015) now available to everyone for a totally reasonable price (as most fans know this was probably the priciest score promo on the collector's market for many years).  I highly recommend it if you are a fan of Trevor's scoring work.  Also great to see is the release of the Jack Frost promo which contains what I consider to be Trevor's most beautiful theme ever, "Frostbite."  There are some other score albums on offer which are signed by Trevor, and were available as official releases in prior years.

But the true highlight of the store's offerings is a box set entitled Changes, set for release on March 16th.  What I assume to be a limited edition, signed and numbered 10-disc release, it features all of Trevor's solo back catalog (with the exception of Jacaranda and Live in L.A.) as well as some special bonus content:
- Additional material from the recording of Can't Look Away.
- The additional songs demo'ed/recorded with Roger Hodgson in 1990 (as "Walls" was previously released on 90124).
- What looks to be the full recording of the December 5th 1989 performance at Boston's Paradise Club as broadcast on WBCN (two discs).
- Two collectible books featuring photographs from the making of Wolf as well as Trevor's 1989 photo session with Lisa Powers for the Can't Look Away packaging and promotion.

So if you're desiring to fill some holes in your collection or salivating over that big beautiful box set...go get your shop on!
