Shouldn't pREServed edition, recordings to be saved for the future, be on HDCD High Definition CD? A standard CD can, after all, only hold a very limited amount of information.
-
Edited 5 years agoIts a must have for any fan, the live shows are very good,
bonus tracks also are very good.
some might complain they didnt add more live shows
(holland,the house recording)
some might complain it doesnt include the full "mole suite"
which were stated as part III in the best left unknown series.
never the less, its all worth your money and time !
-
Nice bonus material and great booklet. That's really why I buy these pREServed editions. For the people wondering why they did not include this Moleshow or that Moleshow, the booklet explains that they didn't want to keep adding more and more live discs, they thought to include the 1st and last shows but realized that would exclude Penn. They picked what they thought was the best two. Personally I wouldn't have needed any more live shows added and think this is a good set. -
Would have been nice to include a dvd of the original Mole Show Live concert, still only available on VHS or Betamax. -
