    Uriah Heep (to building the 20th Century comp I picked up about 20 years ago)

    Kris Kristofferson (1st four albums plus Breakaway with Rita Coolidge), Does Border Lord even exist in CD form?

  2. An interesting choice would be a "Crosby/CPR" hybrid set:

    1) CPR
    2) Just Like Gravity
    3) Crosby-Nash album as a 1 CD and leaving out Graham's songs
    4) Croz
    5) Sky Trails

    Pretenders
    Stewart Copeland/Klark Kent
    Grateful Dead :D
    Toto
    U2
    The Cars (with non-remastered editions!)
    Oingo Boingo
    John Foxx
    Sique Sique Sputnik (tough to find five decent studio albums, I know)
    Television + Tom Verlaine

    I always buy these when possible, you can't beat the value. Often the discs use earlier remasters or unremastered editions instead of recent brickwalled versions, which is great.

    Current ones I've seen, and also one or two turkeys thrown in with classics, when there were other classic albums that could've been included :D

    Must be a licensing issue. I can't imagine it's easy to make a boxset from albums that were released by different labels.

    Ah ****, How did I forget Todd Rundgren's Utopia! Bearsville clearly isn't interested in reprinting those.

    Epic usually throws in compilations.
    Those boxes are a bit bigger, usually blue with the album pics across the middle, and the discs can easily fall out of the sleeves.

    R.E.M.

    In addition to the one I got with the last 5 albums...

    The IRS years:
    - Murmur
    - Reckoning
    - Fables Of The Reconstruction...
    - Life’s Rich Pageant
    - Document

    That is, the ‘IRS Years’ cd’s with the bonus tracks.

    That leaves Dead Letter Office/Chronic Town, but that’s still easily available.

    First 5 WB albums:
    - Green
    - Out Of Time
    - Automatic For The People
    - Monster
    - New Adventures In Hi-Fi

    Well, there was this, although it's quite a hodge-podge collection of albums... and also appears to be showing the 2000's era line-up on the cover for some reason.

    It may hav already been mentioned, but CCR?

    Granted that Chronicle I and II have about 75% of the songs on those albums, but I've always been curious to see what I am missing.

    There is a Talk Talk one, it's only their first 3 albums though. Dont forget Laughing Stock was on a different label (Polydor)

    There were quite a lot of 3 cd sets as well as 5cd ones, I have a number of them.

    Few classic bands are so poorly-served by whoever seems to own their catalogue ...

    Yes, I have two that are Sony/Columbia and Sony/Epic, Boz Scaggs and Sly & The Family Stone. Both used brickwalled remasters of the albums :realmad:

    Warner/Rhino sets have been good in that department, so far.

  14. hey you could even throw on a live album. The original albums are really short so they could also throw in the bonus tracks from the reissues.

    That's right, it's what I expected. Why is there such a shortage of Warner period Prince studio albums on CD, btw? Has the estate been meddling in Warner's business because they are completely focused on streaming now?
