Well, it appears that Amazon.com is not the best place to order "The Sound Of Tiki."

I just cancelled my February 27th pre-order because, although it was supposed to ship sometime in the next day or two with a delivery estimate of April 22, 2010, the product page associated with my order claimed that the CD has been discontinued by the manufacturer. I don't believe that to be true because a search for "The Sound Of Tiki" on Amazon.com yields the deleted CD listing with the familiar cover art as well as a mysterious little album titled "Various Artists" by The Sound Of Tiki supposedly releasing sometime around May 4, 2010 sans cover art. Yeah, right. Something's definitely fishy around here. I have no tolerance for such foolishness and mayhem and so I made my way to CDUniverse.com where I found "The Sound Of Tiki" in stock, shipping in 1-2 days, with a price only slightly higher than my Amazon pre-order and significantly less expensive than 8 Ball's web store.

Here's hoping it won't be too long before I get to experience the wonderful music and packaging you've all been enjoying for quite some time now. Keep your fingers crossed for me, please!
