Finally!
This is now out --- but not for long I fear.
Why? Because pre-orders from distributors were overwhelming and I am effectively sold-out, except for the few copies I have for my own modest mail order sales (as of writing this I have no more than 60 copies - split between black and sky blue editions).
The lovely Mottled Peacock Blue vinyl copies are only available via distributors (see list below) - so please support your local distributor and record shop and buy these directly from them.
(Some of these were given some limited Sky Blue copies - not sure who exactly).
Because I have to sell these limited edition copies on a first-come first served basis and I must reserve the right to limit the numbers sold to each person to prevent future eBay gouging.
I am deeply proud of this release as the music is fabulous - I think it is Aidan's strongest album - just lovely.
The following distributors were given mottled peacock blue copies (see my web site for links):
USA ~~~~~~~~~
Forced Exposure (they supply many shops)

Aidan Baker :: Gathering Blue 2xLP :: Out 29th April '09
Finally - after a long time and some technical problems with the printing - this 2xLP is ready and it looks and sounds GREAT! 444 copies only.
Click on the image of the sleeve on my site (or just click here) to go to the release-specific page with more info and images.
Due to a mistake by the pressing plant (not deliberate I assure you - a pure error on their part) around 55 copies were pressed on black vinyl - which really do look quite lovely. I will be selling a handful of these via mail order while Aidan Baker himself will get the rest.
The remaining copies were pressed on two types of blue vinyl (95 copies on sky blue vinyl with white fluffy bits and the rest on a beautiful mottled peacock blue - quite delightful).
It comes in a gatefold sleeve and a professionally printed 4"x6" card insert (and hand numbered by yours truly). I will be sending an email (crafted by hand - no spam rubbish) to those on my list with a "heads-up" that it will be available.
More news soon...
