Beastie Boys - Collectors Editions vinyl for $59 a piece


Recommended Posts

Don't know if this is BS, but it appears that Kings Road shows that all three Beastie Boys collectors edition box sets are available online for only $59 a piece.  People sell this on Ebay for a lot more and I thought these were all sold out.....  That is what you call a good deal:

Yeah I really have to go for this... Hello Nasty is a given... Ill Communication too. I think I'll pass on Check Your Head. Much like R.E.M.'s Out Of Time, it's got a few classic songs but it doesn't work for me much anymore... Although, damn, it's got "Skills To Pay The Bills" and there's nowhere else to get it! If anyone wants to make a case for it, I might as well plug the trigger on all three to save shipping.

I think all 3 are worth getting although Hello Nasty has some pretty bad sibilance. I haven't noticed any issues with any of the other records yet.

I fell victim to thinking these were limited and no longer available so I ordered a sealed copy of Check Your Head from eBay. 

It ended up being one of the copies that included a 7 inch from the Beasties personal collection but also came with a second copy of the third record in place of the fourth record.

I later on came across the King's Road site and ordered all 3 hoping to repeat the luck I had with CYH and get another 7 inch. I didn't get another 7 inch but all of the records were correct.

Considering their cost, I say it's worth getting all 3. For what it's worth, they all came with the "limited to 1500 copies" sticker on them.
