20 cds, oh my god! Pinch

(still 30 short of how much Schulze has done eventually Wink)

At the perspective of Anderson having contenfull moments and truly questionable ones and from the feeling of getting something and also getting absolutely nothing from him, musically, emotionally, I think I'll make this purchase only upon the deepest consideration.

I agree with you Rico, 20 CDs is a bit much. It's going to take a dedicated Anderson fan to buy that lot.

That's a bit excessive. I doubt there will be enough good material to warrant the price on a 20 CD set. But who am I to say...let's wait and see.

I'm running still, I shall until, one day, I hope that I'll arrive
Warning: Listening to jazz excessively can cause a laxative effect.

Crap, how much would that cost? In A Word costs $90 and that's only 7 CD's.Confused

 
On a related note, I just bought Jon Anderson's "Earth Mother Earth" off ebay for $5.36 including postage, bargain.Clap

My Daughter loves E M E and is always good bed time listening.
There stands Olias to outward to build a ship
Holding within all we hope to retain
The frame will be so built to challenge the universe
Clasped with the skins of the fish of the plain

I'll be happy if it is even remotely as good as Olias.

Yes 20 is too much. I recently listened to his solo "City of Angels" - nothing is special. Two stars, probably. The best album from him was "Animation".
