Although the boxset is great and I love CD5 jam, I also would pay for a better version of Saved from the cutting room floor mix (Underworld vs The Misterons)

Who are The Misterons by the way? An alternate DJ name for UW ? Can't find any info on this.

Got mine in Colorado on the 8th. So far, I have just stared at the book with a huge grin....heavy listening weekend ahead!
I am fine with the yellow outside box cover and the design of the booklet. If anything, I wish there were more text, stories and history. Obviously, UW is a very visual band, what with the Tomato connection, Karl's paint/photo/design work...cool. But a lot of the book sort of reminds me of the old Book of Jam series. Cool for looking at while listening or as a coffee table book, I guess I just think they could pack more live shots, era photos and historical docs in there?

Other concern...the paper half circles that are envelopes for the discs. Turn your box the wrong way ( or get it through air mail delivery!) And the discs will be loose. And I'm sure to rip these taking the discs out and in.

Still, a very nice collection and a wonderful archive, even if we all have personal preferences for what could have been included. Its what the band made for us, and we are fortunate to have it!

Mine made it yesterday.

Pretty much agree with Holden... the book is lovely but more text, interviews, etc would have been great. Overall very happy!

I had two CDs loose in the box (air mail) but no problem... ripped them all losslessly to iTunes and added them to my iPod. Will put the box set somewhere safe.

Loving it so far, very pleased to have the archive of tracks of one of my all-time favorite albums.

(Now just hoping for a US-leg of the tour next year with Atlanta included )

My order arrived in Arizona today (the 5 CD set and the Blu-Ray Disc). Can't wait to dig in.

Let me know.if the blue ray is noticeably better than the CDs, I'm interested in it but only if there's a discernable difference.
