It's not like this is the first-ever release for obsessed collectors who need to have everything, I'm kinda startled at the reaction here ;) as for George's pricey & stupid releases like uber-ATMP, it's not like this couldn't be expected from the artist who published his memoir this way, which had been a bit on the thin side to start with.

Of course it´s way beond my reaches, but in a dream world I´d get it just because it´s so cute.

Content-wise, I think there´s a few new tracks. If I´m not mistaken, there´s an alternate take of "(I wanna) Come home", a marvellous track I don´t think is currently avaiable anywhere.

It’s a very nice looking set but to throw this out there straight after Revolver when, particularly in the UK, we are going through a “cost of living” crisis and every household has been subsidised by the government so we can heat our homes is a tad insensitive to say the least......and if someone chimes in with “Well no-one’s forcing you to buy it”, I’ll punch ‘em on the nose. :lol:

I don't envy anyone doing a vinyl rip of this whole thing.

I probably hold the minority opinion that this is not a "cash grab." It is meant for the collector or those seeking a special set, given the limited copies and the high price. For the rest of us, we are not left out since it will be available through streaming. We know exactly what is being offered and there is nothing misleading about this set. We can be the judge as to what its value is. I am glad that this is available and hope that Paul continues to release more of these special sets. The music will always be great and it is what brings us all together no matter what format we choose to enjoy it. Peace out! :D

We are all collectors seeking special sets. We'd all like to have it. There's nothing special about people who can afford it that makes them more deserving than you are.

And we can all be the judge as to what it's value is. Makes no difference if you don't have the cash though.

Don´t you guys think it´s note worthy that there´re 2022 remasters of tracks from "London town", "Press" and "Off the ground"?
