These are all of the more-than-three LP boxed sets I keep. The Chicago is notable for being a quadruple live album with many inserts; the Philip Glass is a re-issue, with the original having been on Tomato Records; the Mike Oldfield has some interesting remixes, in a very old-school sense – as well as some otherwise unavailable on LP material; the Tangerine Dream also has some unique material; I eventually found the book that goes with the “Electric Muse” boxed set; Y.M.O. “Sealed” was a big “Best Of” with only one unique track; the Zappa is a pirate boxed set, which eventually got a legit issue; I got the Dylan as an LP box rather than a CD box, but now I think I’d like to find a reasonably-priced CD of it; I only recently found the Mo’ Wax / Major Force box, it’s very groovy – I love the works of Toshio Nakanishi; Percy Faith was a Thrift Store record – but sealed!; I found the Warner / Reprise 20^th Anniversary Box at the Capitol Records parking lot swap meet, over 20 years ago – it’s a really super promo-only collection, with a huge book and a truly decent selection of material from that diverse label.
