Woow, that’s cool! Those discs are seriously filled to the max. Awesome!
Not too many new things though, as I only see the new track (CD3-11), and the 01011001 RP video (DVD-16).
Arjen, did you do something to the songs themselves too, or is it ‘just’ putting them in chronological order?
Oh, I really like the artwork too!
Me likes ~ can’t wait
Great news indeed!
Was “Epilogue: The Memory Remains” supposed to be released with the “The Human Equation” Album?
Where’s the Temple of the Cat videoclip ?!?
Artwork looks superb! Looking forward to the release of this monster 
Greetz Taz
Great artwork! Gonna sell like hell
Excellent looking cover for the CD.
Any chance about getting a list of guitar players on the release?
I carefully re-mastered all the tracks, Rob. And some of the versions are slightly different.
No Juan, Epilogue:The Memory Remains is a completely new track. Especially written for this compilation.
Yes, I’m proud of Jef’s painting again, Marous, glad you like it as well! I hope it wil sell, I have no idea who will buy it, haha!
I´m so god damn excited about this, I can´t stop jumping up and down!! The whole thing is so fantastic but the DVD alone makes me …… drool
And the artwork is SO fantastic as usual. A big yay for this little darling – I can hardly wait for it to be mine
I have to say that the artwork for the cover is the best yet. It’s the best Ayreon cover ever.
It’s beautiful. Need a jpeg of it in High Quality because I want it has my desktop! :p
Can’t wait for the new album to hit Europe.
Laurie, the guitar players are Michael Romeo (on Dawn of a Million souls), me (on Memory Remains – solo 1), and Arjen (everything else!).
