Review by Warthur
PROG REVIEWER

Unless there's a latter-day reunion of Fruupp (highly unlikely, so far as I can tell) or someone manages to dig up some decent-quality live material from the band, this budget boxed set from Esoteric is pretty much all the Fruupp that's there to enjoy: you get a no-frills presentation of their four studio albums, with significant non-album tracks incorporated as bonus tracks on the relevant albums, and that's your lot.

If you only wanted the absolute cream of the crop when it came to Fruupp, you might hold out for just Future Legends and mmmmmaybe also spring for Seven Secrets or Modern Masquerades if you were feeling generous, but this boxed set is sufficiently generously priced and compactly formed that I consider it a reasonable enough way to get this mid- tier act's work into your collection.
