only $152 on Amazon, seems kinda cheap. Guess the bad sales are prompting a cheap box set.

When Emotional Rescue tells the other Stones albums jump, they ask how high?

You should join a Beatles tribute band. Or after this week, an MJ tribute act. You're white, right?

I'm looking forward to hearing Bridges to Babylon, I always thought it was mastered really loud. I like this album alot too, despite the loudness... probably the first album I realized fell victim to the loudness wars... here hoping they tightened it up... ABB is so compressed, I don't know if it can be helped or not... jury seems to be out... I will know soon enough, and give my own opinion on the remastered sets...
My fingers are crossed Stephen Marcussen has done a good job... Remastering has become such a bullshit crock... too much can be done to ruin the sound... and so much can be done to make it sound like you just pulled out the vinyl record from 20 or 30 years ago, and get that great, non digital sound through a digital system.

I think I like the 2009 remasters... louder, but not in a bad way... audiophiles may argue the loudness, brickwalling stuff, but these sound better, and yes, gulp...louder...
Only listened to ER, TY and Undercover...
next up...
B&B, IORR and GHS...

Please let me know about the copy of IORR. The Virgin remaster doesn't sound very good at all, IMO. Hope this one is better. If so, I shall purchase a copy.

Tell me about it!

I once got 'asked' to leave a bus by the driver for playing that album ('Flip The Switch' to be exact) at full volume - on a walkman.

He stopped the vehicle and suggested I get off as - even though I was sitting about 25 feet behind him - the noise was affecting his concentration.

I told him that it was the Stones - not a 'noise' - and suggested where HE could get off.
