This isn't that live-in-Sweden one that came out a few months back,
is it? If so, a friend of mine bought that and swears by it. He also
has the new import 3-disc boxed set. I've seen that at Newbury Comics a
couple of times but haven't picked it up yet myself.
There's a real good MtH boot that I have at home of BBC and live
tracks; nearly all from the Atlantic period (read: heavy as hell).
