The package follows the familiar format of book with discs in the back cover, but not as difficult to remove the discs than other sets I've puchased. I've got to say that the book is the best quality of any set of this type that I have purchased ( and I have quite a few). Whoever designed this knew the SMB's target audience - larger print for those aging eyes (it's a compliment).
The guitar and songs are what it's about though. This is a great musical life story told by Steve's guitar playing progression of his career. All of the tune's are either alternate verions, or live performances from a 50+ year career.
The quality of these vintage recordings sound great, I'm on disc 3 and getting excited about firing up the DVD.
I first saw SMB at the Grande Ballroom in early 1968 during the tour for the Children of the Future album right when it first came out. He lost me for a while when Fly like an Eagle became the overplayed song of the next couple of years, but with the remasters I've learned to appreciate the albums of that period.
The Les Paul duet "I Wanna be Loved" is a favorite (I'm glad it is on both CD3 and the DVD)..Don't get me wrong, the whole set is a real treat and well worth the coin.
Time to go,
Adios fellow retro lovers
