Thanks,
Probably nothing that a former Ramones roadie doesn't have...

But it is all remastered, and to quote Amazon

"this collection smartly recasts the punk pioneers as literal pulp culture icons via its EC Comics-inspired packaging and the brilliantly executed comic book history of the band - it's the dizzying visual eclecticism of the included graphic history (executed in color b&w and 3-D by 25 top comic artists including Matt Groening, Zippy creator Bill Griffith, Mad magazine vet Sergio Argones, bootleg cover legend William Stout and Love and Rockets' Xaime Hernandez) that becomes the set's unusual focal point, a loving visual evocation of both their infectious music and shrewd, if willfully low-brow public persona".

I only was on a few occasions: for free music and beer and 75$...I would
do it all again for the same.
I have a few good "rare"recordings but I was wondering if any are included.
The packaging sounds phenomenal,I might have to pick this one up used.

Thanks for the great response!...

Thanks for the recommend
Sir Fly,

It is not a "live" concert as such, it is "live" tracks from different concerts around Europe mainly, then put together as an album. No continutity, but still a great album in my opinion.

The Coral and Budgie . . . both sound promising. Surprising I hadn't heard them until now.

They were one of my random discoveries on Memphis Members last year. I think the announcement about their new album was on the front page as part of those cycling images. Turned out to be pretty awesome.

"Black Ice" AC-DC, a welcome return from one of the best rock bands in the world, a good all round album.
