smailtronic Posted July 8, 2020 Share Posted July 8, 2020 Why in the world would anybody think to make an Elms box set? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

smailtronic Posted July 8, 2020 Share Posted July 8, 2020 I really can't wrap my head around it. They weren't that well known; it just seems like such an odd choice for a pricey discography/box set release. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mmhmm Posted July 8, 2020 Author Share Posted July 8, 2020 I agree. But I also liked The Elms and I know a decent number of other folks did too. Great live show, too. Not sure if there's enough interest at this point in time to sell 200 of these box sets but whatever. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nardes Posted July 8, 2020 Share Posted July 8, 2020 To me it makes sense to do the box set. Most likely if you liked their stuff you liked all of it. They could have easily done each album separately, but just doing an all in one for cheaper than the 4 individual albums works for me. also... The Chess Hotel is easily in my top 10 albums of all time. Such a hidden gem in the music world! mmhmm 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I haven't yet... but I've been closely monitoring the stock level. Lost my job thanks to COVID, and because we have a little one on the way we are just playing things safe until I find a new job. It suck sto wait because I love The Elms, but if those stock levels drop you bet I'm going to just jump on it! mmhmm 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But with unemployment, the little bit of severance they gave me, and our little bit in savings we should be good unlike many others so I cannot complain too much.
