http://www.deepdiscountcd.com

has it for $124.95

free shipping

who is gonna spend that kinds money on that?

not me.

all I wanna hear is the previously unreleased stuff anyways.

well you got to buy it to hear it!

If you order it through GDM I believe there is an extra live disc.

Beyond Description Bonus CD:
1. Weather Report Suite (10/17/74)
2. Blues For Allah > Stronger Than Dirt Or Milkin' The Turkey > Drums > Stronger Than Dirt Or Milkin' The Turkey > Blues For Allah (3/23/75)
3. Showboat (8/12/75 rehearsal)
4. Shakedown Street (8/13/79)
5. Far From Me (8/31/80)
6. Estimated Prophet (10/10/80

this and the bonus material on Blues For Allah have my attention sparked.

>>>this and the bonus material on Blues For Allah have my attention sparked

to be honest, thats was sold me on the deal too. i haven't got to listen to the blues for allah stuff yet, but the acoustic weather report suite and acoustic unbroken chain are really good.

so without free shipping, its like 16 more dollars for the extra bonus cd. that cd doesnt sound worth $16 to me.

i could make a better box set with all the shows on my hard drive for free!

although they wouldnt be studio released albums with never before released bonus material. the bonus stuff is where its at with these.

steal one.

Those tracks on the bonus cd are all shows I know you have to have Popi, I have most of them. The bonus studio/rehearsal stuff sounds cool...

whatcirculates for this ;

2. Blues For Allah > Stronger Than Dirt Or Milkin' The Turkey > Drums > Stronger Than Dirt Or Milkin' The Turkey > Blues For Allah (3/23/75)

is kinda shoddy and is one of my favorite pieces of GD music. Also, I have never even heard of this before 3. Showboat (8/12/75 rehearsal).

if they have any decency they'll release them separately in the future, like they did with the Golden Road set (I bought 3 or 4 of those, might still buy more, and I'll probably do the same with these). Have to get the whole box if you want the bonus disc though.
