The stars of this set are the extra 3 CDs, in that the main album is available elsewhere for less. The extra discs are fascinating if you love these guys and the album. The first disc comprises the songs for the would-be proposed musical, performed by an array of artists. The second disc comprises songs from the album performed live by Costello and Bacharach. The third disc are standard songs of Bacharach performed by Costello. A majority, though not all, of the extra material is not available elsewhere.
The set is housed in a fabric covered hardcover book, with pockets inside for the CDs, the LPs, and the two booklets. One booklet has detailed track information, while the other contains a long essay written by Costello on his musical history with and appreciation of Bacharach. There are also shots lining the inside of sample pages of the script of the proposed musical.
It's a wonderful set overall. But I knock off a star for two things - 1) The retail is way overpriced at $180. At ~$70, it's well worth it for the extras.
2) The second reason I knock it down a star is that the sound quality, while good, is not always great. It's more about the tonality, which can be bright, and dynamically it can seem a bit strained. Soundstage, though, is pretty large and images are rendered pretty large as well.
But the LPs were disappointing. I tried two sets and the LPs came in warped enough that I could hear the piano notes wiggle. I have a sense that where the sets are kept in the Amazon warehouse are too warm, as the shrinkwrap seemed to be a bit too tight around the book cover, causing it to slightly curve.
And the sound of the LPs is overall not as good as the sound on the single LP issue by Mobile Fidelity Sound Labs. The MoFi has a greater sense of ease and effortlessness, far better than the original CD. The LPs of this new set sound more reined in dynamically, less free. And again, tonally perhaps a bit bright..
Still, the music on this set is terrific. If you're not so into the deep dive into the music, just get the CD or standard LP. If you're really into vinyl reproduction, see if you can find the MoFi. It sounds better overall.
For ~$70, though, you'll get your money's worth, particularly if you get LPs that aren't warped.
Handsomely designed the set is about the size of an LP boxed set. There are two oversized booklets with notes for Declan MacManus as well as a booklet with lyrics and credits for the set. It’s a marvelously designed set and, while it combines CDs with LPs (which some fans won’t like), the set has plenty of new material that hasn’t been released (19 plus 3 newly re-recorded songs by Burt and Elvis).
The sound quality? The LPs sound quite nice on the set ai got. The CDs are compressed but not (to my ears) painfully so. Still, it would have been nice to get dynamic well mastered discs. It’s just my take. I’d rather have the content than not regardless of imperfect mastering for the CDs.
Overall, this is a nice set honoring Burt’s memory and his collaboration with Elvis. Is it flawed? Yes.

複雑なまでの内容構成
普通の方はCDで十分でしょうが,コアなファンにはこちらがお薦めでしょう
ライナーというか豪華写真集的なブックレット二冊も,異常なまでにクリアな写真掲載に驚愕でした
謹んでミスターバートバカラックの功績に敬意を表したく思います
追悼盤として私は受けとめました
A handy reminder of the limitations of vinyl, easily the worst for scratches (some really bad ones) and hiss of any vinyl I have purchased in recent years.
Five star box set but three star vinyl I’m afraid.
