dedlee Posted April 19, 2012 Share Posted April 19, 2012 definitely going to try and cop that 7-album box set. i'm really excited about what's going to be on the 2-disc deluxe editions for the cd release though too, Blur have been one of my favorite bands since I was a kid.

crapforgenius Posted April 19, 2012 Share Posted April 19, 2012 I am so excited for all of this. The bonus discs for the albums proper are kind of useless being just the b-sides recycled (again!), but the bonus discs on the mega-box look incredible and it'll be nice to have easy-ish access to the albums on LP again. I can't wait to fork over my cash for it all - I'm guessing somewhere in the neighborhood of $700 for both sets? I don't even care, I neeeeeeeeed them.

tkprtyrhd Posted April 19, 2012 Share Posted April 19, 2012 Cool, but kind of annoyed I just bought copies of The Great Escape and Modern Life Is Rubbish in the UK when I was there. Oh well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rochambo Posted April 19, 2012 Share Posted April 19, 2012 Damn straight. The original release of Leisure had over the top packaging for its time, the vinyl is thinner than a hobo's wallet, but my copy still sounds great after all these years.

duckula Posted April 19, 2012 Share Posted April 19, 2012 £22 per record then with some being 2LP? I reckon I'll just buy the ones I want separately... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
firefoxUSSR Posted April 19, 2012 Share Posted April 19, 2012 £22 per record then with some being 2LP?I reckon I'll just buy the ones I want separately... From Amazon UK: Number of discs: 13 Thirteen... appropriate. I'm def getting this. I bought the Best of Blur 2xLP compilation last year (finally found one for like $60), and I definitely want their albums. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

disintegration Posted April 19, 2012 Share Posted April 19, 2012 Pretty steep price for a broke high school student like me, but I know it'll be worth every penny. Better than spending $60+ for each OP. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
