If you know of any other great deals, leave a comment and we’ll try to add them!
Pink Floyd / The Wall 3CD ‘Experience’ edition
A decent compromise if you don’t want the marbles and shelf-unfriendly Immersion box, this Pink Floyd 3CD set includes the remastered album proper (across two CDs) plus a third disc with demo highlights.
(Amazon Spain)
B.B. King & Eric Clapton / Riding With The King SACD
This hybrid SACD from audiophile specialists Audio Fidelity was issued back in July. Although the GRAMMY winning album (issued in 2000) isn’t here in 5.1 surround sound, audio engineer Steve Hoffman has handled the stereo remastering using original analog session mixes, bypassing the digital cutting master from which all other released versions have been created. These releases are normally £25-ish so this is a complete bargain.
David Bowie / The Next Day Extra
While we wait for Blackstar, David Bowie‘s previous album, The Next Day, is unfeasibly cheap on Amazon UK in its special edition 2CD+DVD guise. Includes remixes, loads of extra tracks and all the videos.
(Amazon UK)
The Proclaimers / Sunshine on Leith (2CD deluxe)
The Scottish siblings’ best-known album, 1988 Sunshine On Leith, contains both I’m Gonna Be (500 Miles) and I’m On My Way. This 2011 two-CD deluxe contains the remastered album plus a bonus disc with B-sides and previously unreleased radio sessions. Oh, and it’s £2.
(Amazon UK)
Van Morisson / Astral Weeks expanded remaster
October’s reissue of Van Morisson‘s 1968 classic was admittedly a modest affair with just four bonus tracks, but it feels churlish to grumble when this is less than £5.
Toto / Live in Poland (2CD)
The two-CD edition of Toto‘s 2013 35th anniversary concert is £15 on Amazon UK but almost £10 less on Amazon France
The Moody Blues / Timeless Flight (2CD)
The 17-disc version of this 2013 Moody Blues retrospective was one of the more excessive box sets in recent years. This two-CD reduction still boasts 37 tracks and enough rarities to keep it interesting.
Led Zeppelin / Celebration Day blu-ray audio
A blu-ray audio of the 2007 Led Zeppelin concert. This features no video content, just the entire gig in 5.1 uncompressed PCM, DTS MA 5.1 and stereo PCM, all in 48khz/24bit hi-resolution audio.
(£8 on Amazon Italy)
Neil Young / Live at Massey Hall (CD+DVD)
This 2007 release is still one of the best of Neil Young‘s ‘Performance Series’ thanks to the 17-track set from 1971 containing so much great material from Everybody Knows This Is Nowhere, After The Gold Rush and Harvest. The DVD boasts video footage and other historical clips.

Once postage is added to the 3 disc The Wall Experience Edition from Amazon in Spain it is actually cheaper to buy from Amazon UK.
Some very tasty offers here:

I picked up the In Utero box set just before Christmas and it was delivered in 3 days.
Hi guys, thanks a lot for this wonderful site… I’ve been introduced by my boss, who is a collector as much as me (and you also)… And THANKS.
I’ve been spending way less, being able to fill all the items i couldnt afford.
Merry XMAS (in late, i know), and keep going on!!!
I’ll be trying to help you out with some infos when I will notice something interesting around :)
Paul– I echo the good wishes and thank you from others. I love the site. Sorry we couldn’t meet for lunch in NY.
Best
Bill
Thanks Bill. Shame about NY. Best wishes for the New Year.
Greetings Paul,
A belated Merry Christmas and Boxing Day. I picked up both expanded Van Morrison, Bowie, Clapton, and neil Young Blue Note (4 vinyl) set. All for $92+ usd. Thanks for all you do. I’m sorry I wasn’t able to take you on a tour of Brooklyn & NYC, when you arrived in USA.
Maybe I can meet you on your next jaunt or if I visit your neck of the woods, you can show me the sites. Peace and a Happy New Year , if I don’t write a post.
Thanks! Would love to take you up on your offer next time I’m in NYC, although not sure when that will be a this stage… Happy New Year!
Thanks for the info on Clapton . .have ordered the SACD .. grand stuff .. many thanks for your excellent work in 2015 long may it continue .. all the best. Cheers..
If you like Toto you may be better off with the recently released 3-disc Ultimate Toto for only £6. Of the dozens and dozens of Toto comps out there this one probably covers the most ground.

Anyone in the US with a Prime membership can get Astral Weeks for $10.
i don’t know of any audiophile who doesn’t love a music sale, but i feel like i’m being at times punished (for purchasing items as they’re originally released) when i see some of these prices. of course, this is the point at which you ask if i wish i’d have waited and i respond: “hell no!”
Proclaimers no longer £2.
