In all honesty, I appreciate all of the pressings. I had the 80s cropped CDs when I could purchase them as imports from the record store I worked at. The hiss from the source tapes always bothered me...

SEBTP sounds great. Phil's drums sound like Phil's drums.
I don't know if the list is final or not but I'm gutted if it is. No W&W, ATTWT, or Duke in the schedule. But, hey, there is the "Shapes"...
What keeps me from buying vinyl is the quality. 85% of the vinyl my friend purchases is warped. Most of the sources used are digital, too.
Me? I would prefer to purchase Mofi pressings. However,...
Mike Rutherford when he borrowed Steve Hackett's Shaftesbury Duo Fuzz pedal (checkout the The Lamb)
Nice!
I'm glad everything got sorted out for you, Garyhead.
I buy a lot of stuff. Used to order from "that company" a fair bit until I got caught up in multiple missing shipments. I too had trouble with...
As a teenager, I would start with an album from an artist, and if mildly interested, return to the record store the following week to purchase the rest of their catalog. Abacab was my intro to...
Seriously? Is there any milk left in these cows?
I guess so bc I keep buying them. Sigh. :D
Mmm. Damn. That rivals the tightness of the original lineup. Pete Jones playing the keys effortlessly. Amazing!
I wish Trevor Rabin was making solo records rather than soundtracks all of these past years. Wow. That's a pretty awesome track.
I thought Bob Dalton announced that he had retired from music?
I don't think Dick Nolan is interested in playing in any form of It Bites. (I believe he said "without Frank Dunnery involved.")
Thanks for the nudge. Preordered.
It Bites was such an anomaly. The first album was a pop record. The second was a prog album. The third album was a hard rock/metal album. Brilliant. It would...
Might need to extinguish the lights while fondling.
Dolby Atmos
Revealing depth, clarity, and details like never before, Dolby Atmos is a sound experience you can feel all around you.
Huh? What kind of marketing b.s. is this and who eats this...
Would you just look at this? Look at it. Just Look at this!

It may be that "The More We Live" sounds better suited for the first World Trade album. But still, a great track, whether for World Trade or Yes.
IDK. Maybe because it sounds so cinematic?
I have the original release. The performances are really good, but the sound quality is slightly "off" to my ears. If it sounds really good then I would definitely repurchase.
Are there any sound...
Thank you for fucking sharing this.
I'm in!
Real musicians, not entertainers, performing live music. Man, bring this back. This new reality sucks.
A Passion Play is one of my favorite Tull albums. Glad to see I am not alone.
Thanks for sharing this :up
Steve Howe's comment in the article regarding Paul Northfield engineering on Alpha, not Mike Stone, makes a lot of sense. I remember John Wetton chatting on his old...
You're right. The Zappa releases have been great.
So have the Pink Floyd... oh wait... not anymore... lol :)
Do we all agree that the King Crimson and Jethro Tull box sets are the gold standard benchmark?
Man, why is Rush failing to deliver value for the price? New artwork? Why? I used to love looking at...
Good call, Larry Canary. That Viva album is always a fun listen.
Man, if there is indeed a future Lamb box, I hope they put a lot more "Super" in the "Super Deluxe" edition. Come on, Record Company and Genesis. Give us some goodies.
Sharing this in case anyone has missed signing up for it...

very true
Great to see so many comments supporting Wetton.
Let us not forget Wetton's use of Moog Taurus pedals beginning with U.K. Ah, that glorious low-end rumble!
Another bassist that did not get...
I believe he was a fantastic bass player and singer.
His bass sound on the 1973-1975 King Crimson live recordings is exhilarating. Like Entwhistle (until Entwhistle began using a miniature Sunn...
Man. Don't care. It is totally meaningless to me and my future.
The Dio material is/was amaaaaaazzzzzing, too.
It would be interesting to see what a female singer could bring to Yes. Or male AND female singers, dual lead singers. That could open up so many...
This is exactly what I hear.
Ahhh thx for catching that. I corrected my original post. I meant to say "It's as if the band believes...". Thx for catching that.
More power to them. Everyone has different ears, experiences, and perspectives.
I should look them up and see if I can sell my Quest box set to one of them so I can recoup my losses.
Does...
Yes. (I am one of the fools buying it as I do not have the immersion set.)
That sums it up for me.
When I listen to albums like Fragile, CTTE, GFTO, and even Drama, I get a sense that the music and their careers are at stake. "If we make a shit record, we're done!" type...
Bingo, same for me.
I'll have the "1968 - 1994" minus the Tomato and Onion, please.
After the last two Yes records, I think I will have to pass. I've never listened to H&E and Quest since first spinning them.
(I overpaid for the Japanese H&E version, plus I purchased the Quest...
LOL exactly.
I preordered and decided to buy the Wish You Were Here Immersion box since it is still available.
But I know.
I just know.
Pink Floyd will "Commemorate" Wish You Were Here in...
LOL Yeah, I won't be listening to those much, if at all. :)
^^^^ +1. Those two singles are amazing.
Please also include 192/24 editions of all of the audio, too.
I had very similar feelings when it was over. "What did I just watch? I've learned nothing I didn't already know. WTF?!?!" Describing it as a trailer is spot on! For me, the coverage of the fans is...
(I enjoy the Perfect Beings records, but I love that Moth Vellum record.)
It's time to celebrate the 30th anniversary of US.

It caught my attention too while listening. For a moment, I wondered if they flew a sample in because it sounds so unnaturally perfect.
I, too, like that Wright's keyboards are clearer in the mix, plus the fidelity of the drums, guitars, vocals, and the whole mix.
However, there is something wonderful about the original mix for...
Thanks for sharing that linky :up
I bought the audio book. Hearing Phil read it makes it even more entertaining. Highly recommended.
lol brilliant, thx for that hearty chuckle :up
maybe we'll get some 50th-anniversary box sets?? I fear it won't be the albums I really want a box set of though.... :doh
Interesting. I had never noticed those Moog Taurus pedals before. I wonder what they used those for?

Thanks for posting that, Dan. I remember reading that years ago but lost access to it. :up
I'd pay $2400 for high-quality, professionally created silver prints.
But then I guess those days are long gone, sadly. :(
Damn. Great setlist. Maybe the band should go totally "Musical Box" and put together a late 70s show to alternate between. Take it on the road!
Same for me. Genesis' Wind and Wuthering is...
Off-topic, but then I guess we're already on a tangent in this thread...
I wonder if they are planning an Under Wraps deluxe box.
I will probably buy it, but the Under Wraps record is not a...
LOL, what a steal!
I want a JT box to dig into right now. I can't wait until 2023........
This is a strange album compared to the rest of the Renaissance catalog. Gone are the orchestral instruments replaced by the mighty Yamaha CS-80. Azure D’Or is one of the first albums I purchased by...
How many people here are spinning the song "Roll The Bones" these days?
Asking for a curious friend.
I 100% agree with this.
Damn. I have been in meetings all day long and just heard.
Like others mentioned above in the thread, I need to blast some Tales and Relayer.
Go in peace, Alan White.
