Review by Warthur
PROG REVIEWER

A boxed set encapsulating Van Der Graaf Generator's reunion years; though it doesn't quite incorporate all the live releases the reunited band have put out, it's got Real Time (including the Japanese bonus disc), plus Merlin Atmos, plus Live At the Paradiso, giving you a generous helping of live releases, and it's got the complete run of studio albums from Present to Do Not Disturb (including Alt) that the reformed band put out.

Whilst I don't think the revived band are quite up to the standards they set in their original run, at the same time this set is perhaps the best way to experience their latter-day incarnation, giving suitable prominence to live material whilst also presenting the studio albums favourably. It's a rare listener who'll get behind everything in here - and Alt is perhaps better treated as a bonus disc than an album in its own right - but equally, there's a deep bench of material to explore in this box and this is a cost-effective and attractive package which will give adventurous listeners many hours of interesting material to delve into.
