Sorry didn’t know where else to put this but Amazon have Changesbowie with the black/clear vinyl lottery for only 11.79 just now, just bagged one!
I won’t personally bother with the Sex Pistols live box having heard the poor quality live material on the NMTB deluxe set.
Three of the shows are direct from soundboard tapes by the bands touring sound man, with only one show (the last one) being a fan bootleg – so good quality on 75% of the release as verified by various reviews I have read as well.
Andrew Sandoval has confirmed that he is working on the More Of The Monkees [Super Deluxe Edition] CD boxed set, and that there is probably enough material for the two remaining albums to receive the same treatment!
Is still like to see a reissue of the old Headquarters box in the new configuration. I missed it the first time around.
