As I write this, the new record is in the mastering stage. As you probably know, mastering is last stage of the production process before duplication. With any luck, we're hopeful that the record will (finally) be ready for duplication within the next couple of weeks. Which means that if all goes as planned (it could happen...), the CD should be available sometime in March. So keep your fingers crossed and stay tuned for details.
I sincerely apologize for the lengthy gestation period and want to thank you all for your contributions, support, good humor, and patience. =PL
