The Alan Parsons Project : Complete Albums Super Deluxe Vinyl Box Set : Unboxing Review
If there was 4K for your ears it would sound like this. A totally immersive experience, the music, the hard back book, the package, just everything! Visually is gets 10/10 as well.
Originally released in 2014 on CD this is the vinyl 11 LP box set
This stunning box set is limited to just1,500 copies worldwide. The first 500 include a signed print from Alan Parsons
This includes the 11 original studio albums on 180gm vinyl including The Sicilian Defence album that they originally recorded in 1979 and was previously unreleased until 2014 when it was included within The Complete Album Collection 11CD box set.
All albums are half speed remastered at Abbey Road and cut from hi-res files transferred from the best available master tapes where analogue was originally used and from the original digital master tapes for all albums from 1983 onwards with everything approved by Alan Parsons.
Also included is a 60 page 12” x 12” hardback book containing full lyrics, brand new sleeve notes.
The Box Set is £300 directly from Alan Parsons (a lot cheaper than Amazon) To buy the albums individually on vinyl would be a lot more and come without the book etc.

Dang, I had chores to do during the live. I'm excited with this Phil. Pulling out "Turn of a Friendly Card" took me back to being 16-17 again, and asking my parents if I could play it in my room.

I ordered this as soon as it was announced. Mine did come with a signed print of Alan & Eric. I agree with your review, it’s a really high quality set and the sound quality is top notch. This set seems to have been largely ignored by the wider vinyl community which I find strange. If ever a box set could be described as reference quality this is it. Im so glad I managed to get one.

These are truly beautiful albums with excellent music. Alan Parson's music reminds me of Pink Floyd and the Beatles at the same time, but maybe it's not as psychedelic as Pink Floyd and it doesn't have as much nerve as the Beatles, but in any case, it's excellent for me. The Alan Parson Project group may not have reached the very top of the world music scene, but it was successfully somewhere near the top for many years, and all these albums are the result of that. I have all the originals and I don't think I need to buy this vinyl box set, but everyone who buys it will surely be happy. Thanks Alan Parsons Project, and thanks for video.

Awesome band, been a fan since the first release. One mini minor quibble would be that Stereotomy doesn't come complete with the original coloured plastic sleeve that gave a visual effect to the album sleeve inside

The package is superb! initial price was ok however currently it's around 500-600 euro per box on discogs and many negative remarks on quality of vinyl (objective) and sound (subjective). For the batch of 1500 copies of each album worldwide it seems they failed to inspect each lp upon production. On the positive note - all albums were originally recorded and produced at high standard level with enormous number of issued copies in various countries. I still keep UK/German first presses and they sound superb. Would replace the covers though on new ones ))) I really envy those who bought this box first place and their box is flawless. So I envy you Phil a lot))) Seems you have no issues with lps and sound. Anyway thank you for your videos! They always bring joy and optimism!

Hi dear Phil, sorry for my late visit. I am a massive APP fan. Their music has lived with me all my life and remains a mainstay. I have the cd version and I am exploring the separate individual box sets.... wher the budget permits. If I would have the means I would get myself s turntable. Their music and albums are the best experience for all senses like Dark Side of the Moon for example. A feast for your eyes ears and soul. You explanation of progressive music is so articulately and perfectly explained. You are one special man. God bless APP,, you and your channel. Sincerely, Tino.

Brilliant boxed set. I wasn't aware of the CD version. This is a thing of beauty. I have most of the original LP's but somehow lost track of APP along the way. I found "Stereotomy" with the original outer sleeve a few months back but need to find "Gaudi" (pronounced 'Gowdi' 😉) and "Ammonia Avenue" to complete the set. I'm guessing one can't the unreleased 'Sicilian' one outside of the boxed set? Great video. Cheers mate. 👍

When I first saw this Vinyl release I was rather astonished by the price (around £350-£380 in the in the UK) but having seen your unboxing I can see that for what is around £33 per album its perhaps not so bad considering the quality and presentation - though not as good a value as my CD version of the same... 🙂 but a nice video.

Thanks Phil. I had already seen this unboxed on the SDE Website. It's a cracking release and they have provided a more comprehensive book compared to the CD version. It's such a shame I don't have the money as I would have snapped it up. Oh well. It would be interesting to see if any of the albums are issued as individual releases. I Robot and The Turn Of A Friendly Card would be snapped up.

Hi Robert, thank you watching. The SDE unboxing video is excellent. With only 1500 copies and the amount of work and passion that has gone into this box I imagine some albums might get standalone releases at a later date. Phil

Great looking set which, sadly, I'll not be able to afford before that limited run of 1500 inevitably sells out and then starts commanding double the price or more on eBay, Discogs, etc. That said, I'm curious to know if "Tales of Mystery" from the new box set contains the original mix like it should, or the 1987 re-mix that was apparently used by mistake for the 2014 CD version of this box. Can you confirm?

Good day! I would really be interested in knowing how you review, rate, rank albums….the process, the how, the behind the scene! As I stated it earlier this week, I just discovered you and maybe this is something you already covered in a previous video. If so, I would appreciate if you could point be out to it!!!! Thanks so much! I really enjoy watching your channel!
@NowSpinningMagazine
@NowSpinningMagazine Год назад
Hi, thank you for watching and I am really happy you are enjoying the channel. My approach is not very scientific I’m afraid. It it’s a classic album I just have it near me so I can refer to it but otherwise just shoot from the hip. For new releases I listen through once or twice and make a few notes of songs title and credits. I don’t script anything. I record the intro and main review in one go and record the unboxing element separately. I then edit these together and that’s it ! Phil
@rockandmetalanthropologist6425
@@NowSpinningMagazine well your damn good at it! I am pretty much the same, but always think some people may have a more scientific approach to it, e.g. a rating system. Don’t change, it works amazingly great! Thanks

I'm not a vinyl guy. So I checked for a CD-Version. There is one from about 8 years ago. It's the same design and it also has the "Sicilian Defence"-Album. Also, you can get for a reasonable price. Do you happen to know this version?
