$75 to $119 is kind of steep for a new or casual fan. Especially in the bitorrent age we live in. Theres also the option of nabbing all 3 albums in used condition for less.
As a gift, the cd box would be a perfect starter pack. |

When reading these posts, I keep wondering if the 96kHz/24bit or analog versions of old solo material are really going to sound better. Unless the material was originally mastered 96/24, or analog (30ips 1/2" ideally), the new releases will not have enhanced depth, detail or imaging. The vinyl will be more distorted, in a way that some people consider pleasant, but that's about it. I imagine information on the original mastering format is almost impossible to find, unfortunately.

just preordered cd box plus the two vinyls (one each) from hmv.
tried doing it from tower, but it didn't like my credit card info, even though i checked it like ten times and it was correct, dammit! i'd like the dvd set, but i don't have the audio equipment to justify the sound. at least i still get same goodies from cd box. |

I ordered 8 of each (to keep up with my current stash of all the other vinyls), but I don't necessarily expect anyone to believe that.
