I'm kinda curious as to what folks would want to see in a Sisters box set - should one ever see the light of the day! Or what is out there on boots that has been purloined from 'official' sources that could be reclaimed....
I love my box sets! Got the recent one by the Band a few weeks back and it's awesome. The Dylan ones are great, the Velvets box has some amazing stuff on it. Likewise the Nuggets boxes. The Joy Division one is beautifully produced.
Basically we all know there is a lot of stuff out there - some of the bootlegs are terrible but there is demo stuff, b sides, live stuff, session stuff. Could expand on Some Girls Wander, include all the albums (or some of the tracks).
I'm not that up on the demo stuff. But been reading about demos of the covers (Emma etc) as well as 'properly' recorded stuff.
What do folks think - is there enough material to fill 4/5 CDs (considering you can get 70-75 mins per CD). DVD? Whether you like or dislike the Band for example their recent Robbie Robertson curated box is great. The booklet is informative, the mastering is great, the 'never heard before' tracks are fascinating. The DVDs got unbelievable TV/live stuff on it...
Is there a comprehensive list anywhere of ALL of the Sisters recorded output, demos as well? Live obviously there is an embarassment of riches...
Apologies if this thread is similar to any previous ones or embarrassingly naive! I'm still new to this board

This would make a decent 4-CD box set if it got an official release.
The fundamental cause of the trouble is that in the modern world the stupid are cocksure while the intelligent are full of doubt.

I would gladly do some copies myself when I can get the bloody cd copier to work.
Pretty please with sugar on top.
