I've had that for several weeks and already done a run-through of the whole thing. Brilliant. And the remastering job on everything from Mirrors on up was excellent, on the older stuff they used the earlier remasters which were also good.

A wise purchase, Jim. The remastering job + the bonus material =  ------------- I can understand your anger at me, but what did the horse I rode in on ever do to you? |

The timing was perfect. I don't have even one BoC disc. I had several albums back in the vinyl days but when I switched to CDs never got around to replacing them. So I was going to pick up a disc or two and noticed the new box. Then I saw it even had a live DVD from the 70s. That was the clincher. Tunes are great, but give me some 70s live footage of decent quality and I'm in. ------------- ...that moment you realize you like "Mob Rules" better than "Heaven and Hell" |

Oh well since you haven't picked up any of the CDs, there is tons of bonus material, some of which is just as good as the albums they are from (there were several bonus tracks on BOC up through Spectres). And then there's the rarities disc and the BBC disc of live material and demos. And the DVD is really cool. First time I've seen the classic lineup in concert. ------------- I can understand your anger at me, but what did the horse I rode in on ever do to you? |
