That Acuff box is amazing.Got very good sound,super sound restoration.Book is amazing lots of information and pictures.Something is wrong with the DVD,movie suddenly stops.about 5 minutes are missing When will we who have this box set get a replacement DVD?
In the typical exchange of gifts that happens at a summit, I believe the USA envoy should give a copy of the new Korean War Bear Family box to the North Korean dictator. That should break the ice (while we are standing on it).
The only thing wrong with the Acuff set is that it was not 20 CDs. You can sample some early Acuff somewhere on the web I am sure.
A cd box with Dickey Lee is one i want.Very good underrated artist. Started at SUN records later Mercury recorded later for RCA Victor. Dickey wrote this classic:Dickey Lee - She Thinks I Still Care Dickey Lee - I Saw Linda Yesterday 9,999,999 Tears

Just got the Carter family set today. Finally. It was lost in the mail for 2 weeks! Anyway...this thing is GORGEOUS. Saw a pic of Brownie McGhee in the book. I'm supposed to be finishing my capstone this weekend...but the book is sitting there...willing me away from my school work...
Which doesn't matter at all. People had been working on it for a long time, and it's only fair that they accept a delay in manufacturing to get everything right – and the set is going to be available for years.

The list i sent to Richard Weize in late 80s has been done very well by Bear Family. This was on my list,and it is fantastic:
I liked Universal's Not Fade Away set, but I would still like to see what Bear Family could do with a Buddy Holly box set.
Last night I gave another listen to the obscure Joey Castle's Rock & Roll Daddy-O compilation. He mainly sang Elvis-style rock 'n' roll, sometimes being hired to record demos especially for the King and/or his producers to hear. However, this tune written in 1968 by former Elvis hit-writer Otis Blackwell is the type of thing you'll only hear on a self-produced privately-pressed record.
