Favorite Rock Box Set?

[chris olivarez]

I don't think anyone has discussed label boxes here:

The only label box I have is the 2-CD Cobra box - at thetime it was the only way to get the Otis Rush master takes in one place. Other music on it is good, too.

Ditto.

That Cobra box is excellent--one of the first blues CDs I ever bought. NASHVILLE JUMPS from Bear Family is excellent as well.

Jane Greer. I watched THE BIG STEAL again this weekend and am obsessed once more... she reminds me so much of my wife in that movie! I didn't realize until yesterday that THE BIG STEAL was Mitchum's "comeback" movie after the pot bust. Evidently much of the movie was filmed while he was still in jail.

I can see why you would be obsessed Ghost. Thanks for the info.

I don't have too many rock box sets, the only one I pre-ordered was the Buffalo Springfield, 'cause I simply love their music.

I saw this at the library today and checked it out, never havin heard anything besides "For What It's Worth." I gotta say, the charm eludes me. Anything I'm missing, or something I should listen for? Not a knock, mind you; just curious!

I really like the Buffalo Springfield: great songs; great harmony; a classic folk rock sound. What's not to like But, in the end, after all, it's a matter of taste. Give it another listen if you can.

Jane Greer.

You mean Kathie Moffat.

I happened to see The Big Steal on TV recently. That film sure moves fast!

Discovered the Hendrix box at my local library. This sucker just shot to the top of my MUST BUY PRONTO list!!!! I’m with Bev about the not being much of a fan of Hendrix. I can only take him in small doses. But this box proves me wrong! The version of “Bold As Love” is worth the price of admission alone!!!
