Incidentally Will FLy-just went over to Bees Web to look at the track listing. Unless there is a lot of alternate or live versions, this box seems to be all of what you and myself (as a big Thompson fan) already own. The Free Reed set really had some true rarities-Push and Shove, Flying Saucer Rock and Roll, etc. |

I have the RT box set and this new one would have to go an awfully long way to beat it. For me RT is the final statement on Richard Thompson's musical past |

But that's OK; the booklet has a nice essay by Patrick Humphries and lots of rare pictures, so I bought it anyway when it came out a few weeks ago. |
