I must say. . . none of these box sets really bother me. In the case of the Miles material I know the stuff so well I don't need to see session personnel just a quick glance tells me what disc to put in to find what I want and who the performers are. I'm not in need of every little discographic nuance, and when I do need details I don't mind some browsing to get them. And I never mind chronologicsal presentations with alternates mixed in etc. I can program and skp tracks if I want to. . . .
Guess I just like box sets! Listening to the Complte Miles and Coltrane Columbia todayl Eager for the Cellar Door and the Morton ones!
