Big Beat Steve Posted April 13, 2024 Report Posted April 13, 2024 (edited) Browsing the bins at a record clearance sale held by a local shop today, I found the three CDs of the Rhino box set "The Beat Generation" (R2 70281) at the VERY affordable price of 1 EUR each. However, no booklet anywhere in sight. Now I would of course like to add the info of this booklet to the music (starting with the accurate discographical details). So ... my question to fellow forumists: Is there anyone out there who owns this set and would be able to take the time to scan and mail the booklet that came with this box set? Please PM me for further arrangements if you are basically OK with helping me with this. Thanks a lot in advance! (P.S.: As to anyone wondering how come such box sets crop up piecemeal, there were several more box sets that apprently had been taken to pieces (including Bear Family sets). I asked the shop owner if the booklets by any chance still were anywhere around but he said unfortunately not. These items came from a "collection" they had received where the owner had filed the CDs individually. They had been able to piece together a few complete sets but in most cases the booklets and box shells probably had been discarded earlier.) Edited April 13, 2024 by Big Beat Steve Quote

Big Beat Steve Posted April 13, 2024 Author Report Posted April 13, 2024 (edited) Thanks very much for the links. I had seen the one on Discogs but was wondering whether there might be more details (e.g. more comprehensive recording dates). I am still interested in scans of the booklet, though. In particular if there's a section that discusses the individual tracks. Any general chapters on the basic story of the Beat Generation would be far les important (I've got books that cover this subject pretty well). Edited April 13, 2024 by Big Beat Steve Quote
