I think it's worth it. It sees them moving out of the more keyboard-led sounds of the 80s back towards more guitar-led stuff. But if you've never heard any, it might be worth sampling it on Spotify or whatever before buying.
The one album it doesn't include is their final studio album Clockwork Angels, which is excellent.

Thanks I have heard that actually. I "quite like it". I suppose I have probably heard some of the material I'm saying I've never heard as I've listened to some live stuff. Only time I ever saw them was on the Signals tour. At that price, it might be worth a punt.. |

Until today, I'd only heard a few Soft Machine tracks with Allan Holdsworth on guitar. A pal advised me to listen to his solo work, so I thought I'd start with 2CD compilation Eidolon. Going for about £20 online. Then I spotted a 12 album download set on qobuz for only £7.49...... It'd be rude not to!!!

Oasis...I guess you're talking CD/DVD not vinyl? That's worth a fortune.... |

On vinyl, if you live where I live two iconic LP's - Tony Captick's Capstick Comes Home on Air Records and Steve Womack's Northern Comfort on Phaht Life Records for £1 each - maybe two of the most of the most funny people I have ever seen.

Waterboys Magnificent Seven CD set for £19.99 on eBay (compared to £49.99 on Amazon). After the positive comments on her a month or so back, I should be in for a good weekend.

Cherry Red have 20% off all of their folk and reggae titles during May. It is mostly reggae to be fair but there are titles by Iain Matthews, Steeleye Span and Pentangle. I have just picked up a Swarb anthology and, bizarrely, compilations by Hotlegs and Rachel Sweet which are included for some reason.

As a fan of both folk and reggae, I need to have a shufti at this. Jules |

Oh yes, get that one. It's very good. Not as good as the proper albums of the same period, but still good. I had a look. Much of it is late 60s/turn of the decade stuff. Pre-roots. I'm no expert on that era. I'm sure there are plenty of great things here, but none that I know well enough to recommend. Jules |
