2020 reissue

 

Ha! That reminds me. The last CD I ever bought new was just before the turn of the century. It was a monty python double disk and appropriately named "the final ripoff"!

 

Well folks, I made it to 14 days without an Amazon purchase - but all good (bad?) things must come to an end.

What tipped me over the edge?

MIGHTY BABY - At A Point Between Fate And Destiny: Complete Recordings (6Cd Clamshell Boxset) | Amazon.com.au | Music
Cost - $40.15 on Aust. Amazon.

I have had sleepless nights waiting in anticipation to hear their 36 minute version of 'A Blanket In My Muesli'.

 

Thanks for this tip. Arrived within three days, well packed . Discs flat and clean.

 

I now have a tracking number for the mythical supercheap King Crimson 19 CD box set - "On and Off The Road'', supplied by ShopAbroad.

It was dispatched from Melbourne yesterday.

What exactly turns up in my mailbox next week remains unclear!

 

Wow, yours must be the only one that wasn't 'damaged' in transit - well done!

 

I will see what turns up before I break out the imported beers!

 

Anyone who receives a King Crimson box and wants to double their money, PM me.

Great collector's piece.

 

great price, over $200 on US Amazon

 

Actually thought about buying it, CDs one and two sound good but after that each CD gets worse - MC Hammer, Vanilla Ice!

 

Yeah, there are some discs that might not get much play, but it looks like a cool set....

Very tempted.

 

Thanks for these links, I ended up grabbing the Ashkenazy solo box after it dropped further to $95 today.
