Well no, actually. I like some of the newer albums, in fact, I listen to Festival Bell a lot more than I listen to the original 5.

It sounds like a bargain, I may just do that! I don't think I have any of those (maybe Liege and Lief). My favourite FC album is Over the Next Hill, I think. This week anyway.

Got them all, but only on strange 12" discs of plastic. What do you do with those things? (Fruit bowls?)  Huh

Must have purchase I'd say.  Grin

I see they're boxing up the next 5 studio albums, from Angel Delight through to Rising For The Moon, for a similar set being released in the new year:

A good deal to be sure.

There's a lot of this going on.  Is it the record companies pushing this stuff out again in a last attempt to sell it before CDs disappear (as is being predicted, but I don't hold my breath) ?

If it happens like with  vinyl, CDs will reappear in a decade or so at inflatable prices for a retro/ hipster market.  Wink

But it's a two-fold solution - cheap CD collections for the spontaneous bargain hunter, and super-deluxe, super-expensive collections to grab big bucks from more indulgent, well-healed fans.
