Yes it is all on DVD. I have the complete set...Also check out the Six of one society.. they are the official groupies of The Prisoner series but its pricey to join.
You can order DVDs from AMazon or Six of One society I will tell you more about the location where it was filmed , which is very interesting IMHO. |

Does anyone know if C&J are available on iTunes?
I'd really like some of their music on my ipod because I travel so much and can't drag my record player around with me. ![]() |

The US iTunes store only has a couple of compilation discs with a track apiece, but there's one disc, of some of the early Ember years stuff, in the UK store. It's just called "A Summer Song", 17 tracks, and it's from El records. (Who?) Heaven knows what the quality's like, some of those hurled together discs can be pretty ropey (see the discography on Jason's website), and it's only 7.99. You can buy the whole thing, or individual tracks for 79p a pop.
I suppose you'd need a Pay-Pal account, or some other means of paying internationally - can't say I've ever tried it with iTunes, but I presume it's possible. These days even the local corner shop seems to be able to deal with internet orders without batting an eyelid! But I reckon you'd be better doing it the old-fashioned way - buying a known quality CD from Electric Paintbox, Amazon, eBay or whatever, and inputting it yourself. It doesn't take long, and you know you're getting the real thing. |

I use my Dad's paypall account when I use iTunes, I just buy myself a iTunes gift card. I think I'm going to buy some of the songs, but if the quality is horrid I'm going to buy some off the Electric Paintbox.

That El Records "A Summer Song" disc is quite good sound quality.
The live "Yesterday's Gone" is for me one of the most interesting tracks in their whole career - because that is literally what they sounded like when they were nearly-folkies. We don't sell any of the Ember stuff on Electric Paintbox, partly because they're involved with an ongoing legal case because they allege they've never ever been paid for any of that stuff. But yes, those tracks should be really good sound quality. |

Just downloaded the Summer Song album, and heard the live "Yesterday's Gone" (Mmmmmm) and "If I had my way" (Yee-Hah!) for the first time. Sorry, don't mean to gloat
Certainly worth kicking up a fuss about - after all, C&J were and are much bigger in the US than the UK, it seems daft the disc is available here and not there. |

Re: Re:iTunes | ||

Yeah, the "A Summer Song" album is not on the American iTunes. The only C&J songs they have are not by C&J. It's just two really bad covers of "A Summer Song" and "Yesterday's Gone."
And how would one complain to iTunes, anyway? They seem to not have a "you suck eggs like a weasel" section. ![]() |

I know it's not a download, but in case you haven't seen it, there's "A Summer Song" (album) on eBay |

"You suck eggs like a weasel" is something my sisters and I say.
And I really need an ebay account. ![]() |
