New 3-CD box set: "Original Album Classics"

[kevincheung410]

I got this today! Damn packaging! I hate there's no booklet!

[Davey84]

it isn't worth buying then? can you post pictures of the inside?

[J-Man]

Davey the pictures you need are towards the bottom of page two. I got this a month ago and actually I would say it is worth buying. Okay the red discs are unattractive and yes there are no booklets. But the draw as a collector is the cardsleeve covers. They're different and better than having the regular jewel cases with yet another outer slipcover over them.

 

Also it contains the extended version of The Greatest Reward (although strangely it calls it the "Album Version")

sorry! I forgot the pictures were posted already!

 

I think this release is pretty expensive for around 17 euros! the FIY/LTAL/ANDHC Collection release was way cheaper and it was way more well designed than this release... I've got the feeling people at Sony don't even know what other departments are doing!

[J-Man]

Well I didn't pay €17 for it! That is too much.

 

Yeah the previous design was much better, no question. But I would still say this is worth getting at some point. But only as a collector, for regular fans who do not have these already there are much better quality packaged versions out there.

[Davey84]

oh ok, most I saw on ebay were around 17 euros...

 

it's on amazon for about 15 euros...

it's like Time McGraw's Greatest Hits Vol 1 to 3 (limited Edition)

it's all in Slip case kinda...

but i quite like it though especially the cover, only not so much on the disc!!

[RLAAMJR.]

THat's the look that i like from Celine. I'm referring to the cover. I hope it gets to our place too so i can get one.

 

This is a treasure to me.
