This is very cool. Expensive, but not so bad when you have a 40% off
coupon from Borders.

How much are they?  All the same price?
[ live stuff? ]
----------------------------------------------------------------------
**Trepass, Nursery Crime, Foxtrot, Selling England, The Lamb, and a double
disc of extras... includes some vids.  The regular albums come with a
revamped stereo CD mix, and a DVD with 5.1 mixes in Dolby Digital and DTS,
along with some current interviews of the members including Gabriel.  $140
list price, hence my delight at stumbling across it in Borders on a day that
I had a 40% off coupon.

BTW, here's a discussion at Amazon re the promised SACD version vs. DTS.  I,
too, was tempted to hold out for the SACD imported version, but figured that
I probably saved $100 by settling for the DTS.  As mentioned by some
posters, the stereo mix of Selling England does sound fabulous:  I've always
loved the vinyl, but am surprised to say that there is a noticeable
improvement on the new CD over the LP.

Thanks for the reply. I can get the first two (well, the first two
chronologically - for some reason, the 1970-1975 set is called box set
3) at Amazon for about $200, total. I suppose I'm more or less happy
with that.

But I'm still looking for an answer regarding the live stuff -
specifically, Gensesis Live and Seconds Out. The later live stuff I
don't care about. Or maybe there have been recent remasters of those
that are acceptable?
