Big Audio Dynamite Box Set

Post by daredevil »

Snoh posted about the Big Audio Dynamite box set at Snews. I looked for it at a couple of local stores (in the USA)
but none had it. If anyone has purchased it, please let us know any details, (re-mastered? booklet?)

Mine's been shipped from Amazon, just waiting for the postman bringing the goodies. I'll post my findings when it arrives.

I've got it. No additional tracks and not remastered.
Just 5 CDs all the same design in facsimile card covers of the albums. No inner sleeves so no sleeve notes at all. A poor representation but still very inexpensive.
Details are here : www.musicmadesimple.info
This website is quoted on the box as the place to get the album credits.

Thanks for the info about the BAD boxset. I'm a little disapointed that the discs are not remastered, but
I still want to buy it. Need to replace some of my old and in very bad shape BAD cds.

I thought it was pretty good. I didn't expect it to be, thought it might be one of those unauthorized cash in things. I don't know what's out there for boots of them and haven't seen too many live clips except a few on youtube, so maybe a bigger BAD fan would find it to be too short but I enjoyed it, if anything for seeing them do Prince's 1999.

You've just convinced me to get it.

I've heard bad reports about this one. Haven't been convinced to hand my money over yet.
Mind you, I was never a big fan of BAD II.

If you can get it cheap its worth it. I think a lot of people were just mad because it's not the whole concert, only about 45 min of it. But fine picture and sound quality so it's better than nothing.

Easy !
It's the only white guy in the middle of black people !

Can you give us more informations about this dvd ?
Some upgrade some new stuff
We all got the video now
But still a good old BAD live around 87 still missing
This stuff must exist somewhere

The thing is.... BAD was never a big seller. With Don (filmmaker) a lot's of stuff must exist, but sony really don't care about them..... That's a shame.
