There needs to be an Elliott Smith box set.

I would be surprised in 30 years you listen to Chiodos

Yes, please.
 
   
Let It Come Down, which is the one studio album being reissued here, is more similar to the last 2 albums than anything before it, so if you enjoy Songs In A&E and Sweet Heart, Sweet Light than you should like it as well. When you start looking at earlier material (especially the first 2; Lazer Guided Melodies and Pure Phase) the sound is more psychedelic and less radio-friendly and pop influenced (though every album they've done show both sides of their sound). Their third album, Ladies And Gentlemen We Are Floating In Space, seems to be considered their defining album and is worth every bit of hype it receives.
Amazing Grace and Sweet Heart, Sweet Light are the two albums I find least memorable. Ladies And Gentlemen... and Songs In A&E are my favorites (I'm not sure how many people agree with me on most of these).
The other two being released here are live recordings. Fucked Up Inside I have never heard and Royal Albert Hall I have only listened a couple times (a couple years ago) but remember it being pretty enjoyable. Never got a chance to really take it in.

Amazing cover art. Also, those stickers with the Jurassic Park logo make me so nostalgic!

They've been on Nonesuch since 2006.

Speaking of the Rock n' Roll Hall of Fame (and to take the conversation in a slightly new direction, since I think we've exhausted the current conversation) --- does anyone else think that it's pretty bullshit about Chad Channing not getting inducted? I mean, I agree,the Hall of Fame is stupid, but stupid as it is, the decision to exclude him seems particularly cruel and disrespectful. 

I was kind of excited when I read the title.  Till I saw the price that is....

Oh my god you people need to stop your bitching.  If you can't afford records do not buy them.
 
Create a new thread about how records are too expensive for you all... so we don't have to search through this thread for actual valuable info.

The funniest thing to me is that I guarantee half the people complaining in this thread will turn around and justify paying way too much money in another thread because it's a new and/or more limited release.

I liked the soundtrack but I don't really like that artwork, which is usually a big selling point on Mondo releases.
 
Waiting for the Jurassic Park amber vinyl...
