If I'm not mistaken, like all the other Miles reissue boxes Columbia has been putting out, the advance promo copies sent out to reviewers have been floating for months now. Dale. In a message dated 9/11/2003 11:25:08 PM Eastern Standard Time, zsteiner@butler.edu writes:

I was poking around Allmusic.com and found that they already have a review (a very positive one) of the upcoming Complete Jack Johnson Sessions box from Columbia. They have the release date as 3 September as opposed to 30 September for everyone else. What gives? I've never seen AMG publish a review before an album was released. Normally they take a few weeks to get a review up after the release.
