Great to see brendon join the sot community he will be a great addition
Thank you Neil! I appreciate the support!
so would Anthony!
@@BrendonSnyder will you get the who's next boxset the 10 disc version is expensive in my opinion
I am pleased that Brendon Snyder is now joining the SOT family. Good guy with excellent taste in music.
I think Brendon absolutely belongs here. Love him and sot. I’ve wanted this collaboration for ages! Brilliant! 🤘
Thank you Patrick! I’m grateful that Pete asked me to join him on this super fun topic.
@@BrendonSnydergreat channel content. My ears love it, wallet not as much lol
Great watch,two very knowledgeable guys sharing their great love of my favourite type of music.
Have you still got your cat Brendon??
Great to see Brendon and Pete together, two of the best in music content!
Welcome to SoT Brendon! Nice to see the two of you doing a show together.
Thank you Scott! I’m glad to be here.
I’m so glad that Pete has finally put Brendan Snyder on his channel. Brendan has an incredible collection and is extremely knowledgeable about his music and collection. Also great to see Scott on from the Prog corner as well. Hopefully scott will become a regular now on sea of tranquility in the Prog seat. And hopefully Brendan has at least earned a spot on the Hudson valley squares, the curse of the collector or any other sea of tranquility series!
Here’s hoping both Scott and Brendan join the sea of tranquility team !
Happy to see Pete and Brendon doing this discussion! I could see Brendon doing Curse of the Collector for sure.
Thanks Mel!
oh ya

Love Brendon's channel. His "music round-up's" and "visit to the local stores" episodes are a real treat, and he always has a kind word for his viewers.
Cheers.
Excellent! Good person to have on the channel. I have been a subscriber to Brendon's channel for a few years now. I hope you continue to collaborate and grow both channels.
Thank you Jonathan!
Two guys who love music with a passion cheers for this great show always interesting to hear Pete and Brendon.
I actually stumbled across Brendon’s TH-cam channel a month or so before finding SOT on TH-cam at the beginning of the pandemic. So glad to see him on SOT!
I actually used the lockdown time during the pandemic to really focus on building my channel. Maybe the only positive that came out of the whole pandemic. But I’m glad you found my channel and it helped you through.
Pompeii is in the Early Years box in the Obfusc/ation set. Meddle 5.1 is what was left off at the last minute, but still extractable with a computer
The two most eloquent and knowledgeable music collectors on TH-cam together in one video? Instant like!
I knew Pete and Brendon would hit it off together once they got together and started talking collecting music. I also knew that Brendon would bring something very special to SOT channel. I watch SOT and Brendon's channel "All the damn time" everyday. This is an amazing video with incredible content. Hey, bands time to listen to this video when you want to create a successful SELLING box set. I really hope Pete asks Brendon to come back on SOT again!! Brendon would be great on Curse of the Collector series.
Great show, guys. Enjoyed it immensely! Happy and surprised to see Brendon on SOT!
Two of my favorite TH-camrs in one video! I'm here for it.
Thank you Chris! We both appreciate the support!
Awesome seeing you guys hooking up, Brendon is a class act, always brings quality content! Talking about quality: Jethro Tull is the prime example how to do (box)sets. Those who know can only agree. Benchmark stuff.
I concur with the Tull boxes... ;-)
Thanks, we certainly had lots of fun as you could see. Boy did we geek out 😂
SoT is expanding, including Brendon is a nice addition. Great talk on boxsets. I think Jethro Tull 's boxsets are the best as well as Marillion. I have all Floyd's boxsets. They are my favourite band. The Immersion ones are the best.
Recently discovered Brendon's channel and am so happy to see him doing a show with Pete. This is awesome!
WOW. Brendon is a hit! This already has 11,000 views! Keep up the good work you two. Hope to see Brendon very soon, you’re awesome!!!
Wow! What a great surprise, Pete, to see this collaboration with you and Brendon. Watching it now and it's great as usual. So nice to see the unity and friendship that our music brings to people. Brendon's channel is awesome as well and seeing you two geniuses together is very cool. Kudos to you both!
Wow what a nice surprise to see you two team up! Great episode!!!
It's good to see you two working together. You have a good rapport and similar tastes in music, and are both avid collectors. I look forward to seeing more in the future.
Great episode! Great to see you guys together
Well this is a huge surprise, looking forward to this interview. Brendon has a great TH-cam channel as well I’ve seen many and love his album collections!
Glad it’s made you excited! We had lots of fun. I hope you do as well while watching.
Been following Brendon for awhile now. He is great, personable, and responsive to fans. His music news and album release videos are a must watch for any music collector. I was telling my wife I wish you guys would do a video together, and here it is! Thanks guys this was great and I learned a lot!
Great to see Brendon here as well! Phil :)
I watch Brendon's channel too 😊 He would be good guest on "The Curse of the Collector" 😎👍
Trust me I feel that curse all the time! Haha 😂
Time well spent. So thought provoking, yet the video was over with before you know it. Don't know if you could do a Part 2, due to the material matter, but I would think it could be as interesting to watch. Both of you being extensive media collectors, definitely adds to it. Thanks for sharing.
Interesting show. Personally I am not a collector of box sets, but some are very tempting when done right.
Two of my favourite youtubers together at last! Yes, more of these, please!
Great to see you two together, Brendon is one of the nicest guys you could ever meet and is the KING of melodic rock, great show and lets have more from Brendon
Peter we want more of Brendon! Terrific
Sometimes it seems to take a while for new guests to find their feet, but Brendon had great chemistry with Pete from minute one. Needs to be a regular!
As for the nutzo ROLLING STONES box set of 45 discs, I would suggest to do what I've done several times, when it comes to the content of "difficult" sets like this.
If you still have the ability, simply make a little set of CD-Rs that contain say 17-22 tracks each, as to save yourself from all the inconvenience.
I guess, in this insane case, that would still turn out to be 9 or 10 discs (usually much less), but then you can at least listen to all the material in a much more relaxed/laid-back manner, and you wouldn't have to take any of those 45 separates out at all. -- save for enjoying the artwork.

What an unexpected episode! Two of my very favourite youtubers together! It is almost like TH-cam Christmas to me! Thank you good people you make my life a little better.
I know this guy personally. He is a great guy and huge music fan like myself. Great get for the channel Pete. Never go wrong with Brendon.
I am really enjoying these two person shows with Pete and other TH-camrs on specific topics. I would like to see more shows like this.
Brendon is a really good find for me, seems like a really good guy. And thanks for having him on, would enjoy seeing more of these team ups.
Love the natural flow of conversation and intellect with theses two ❤🎉
Awesome! This is the dream dynamic duo! Thanks for joining forces, guys!
Great to see Brendon on with you. You guys are my 2 favorite TH-camrs. Best sources for new and old music.
My problem with some box sets is how many times can you buy the same thing!
That kills me too! I’ve had to stop buying some boxsets and deluxe editions for just that reason. Only so many editions that I can own of one album.
Great show as expected! Good to see Brendon finally in SOT!!!!
Worlds collide! My two favorite channels combined!
Thanks guys! Great show!!
This was awesome! You and Brendon have great chemistry! Can't wait to see you two collaborate again one day!
I just discovered Brendon more recently and have really enjoyed his content. This was a long video and I wasn't sure if I could make it through, but I had some time to kill today so I watched it all and really enjoyed it. I am also a box set enthusiast. Kudos to both of you for an excellent, informative video.
So good to see Brendon on SoT! I hope there will be a lot more shows with him in the future!
Great topic. Somewhat of a box set collector myself. Box sets I love the most are the King Crimson big sets. Where they have the albums, on CD, DVD and Blu Ray along with about 20 CDs of live concerts.
Thanks guys!
Great to see Brendan on SOT! 2 great music minds.
The surround sound disc is THE main reason to buy these box sets. I realize that not everyone has the equipment to take advantage of it but it offers such an improvement over stereo. You will hear things you have never heard before.
Agreed, I love surround music
Great seeing Brendon. He does great videos.
Great to see you two together. Nice
What a crossover!! how great!
Great to see you guys doing a video together. Hope to see more like this in the future.
Great show guys, very cool to see Brendon here 🙂
Congratulations to both of you. You guys make a great team!!!
Another great video, Pete. I am a box set collector and one of my pet hates is when an artist releases box sets of all there studio albums over a peroid of time and changes the format halfway through the project. Marillion are a perfect example of this. When they first started doing box sets of their EMI era albums in 2017, the first one included the bonus tracks from an earlier remaster on a cd but all the other ones since have included this on the bluray disc instead. Only two of the box sets included a track by track analysis on the bluray aswell.
I absolutely loved this episode! You two do great together, and I look forward to more of these! 😁
Wauw!! Two of my TH-cam heroes finally chatting together 🙌🏻♥️🎸🇺🇸
Great to see Brendon on the roster..love lots of his shows.welcome!!
Yes I agree that it was great to see Brendon and Pete together talking about what we like or dislike about cd box sets. I hope they will do another video together. Take care
Brendon I have caught his channel and have liked and loved content he has had. Good to have him come on with you. There is real good box sets and bad ones. Given what the companies wish to provide you with, I love as to along some I see of what is offered. Hard to have as many as to small place I have. So space is always a concern. If not live to catch replay. Welcome Brendon good to see you. I joined your channel.
Great episode. The Doors have box sets I think can fit in both categories. For best, the NYC 1970 shows box, excellent material and packaging, for worst the 1997 career spanning box set, it has some interesting material but also some real WTF choices.
Great show! Great to see Brendon on here. Tull sets all the way for packaging and content. But I also bought the recent ELP set which is large as it contains vinyl and cd's but it's a beautiful set. Also, I recently bought a new turntable and read that marbles are useful for leveling a turntable and a lightbulb lit up in my head and I thought oh that's what those marbles were for in the Floyd box!
Thanks Lucius!
I love both of your channels so much
Thanks so much!
Great discussion! Thanks for sharing your opinions. You two make a great duo.
Glad to hear you enjoyed it Andy!
Brendon on SOT, great stuff!
Two of my favorite TH-camrs collaborating! 😊
My favorites! Brendon Snyder and Peter Pardo!
Must admit I love a box set. My personal favourite is the Cash Unearthed with 4 discs of unreleased material, plus a best of 5th disc of the released albums, also a great book with it. Love the show guys.
Love this topic!
Hey guys!! I watch both of your shows regularly!!! ⭐️⭐️ I’m so glad you guys have done a show together!!! 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼 I agree with everything you guys have discussed!!! Great show!!!
Excellent video discussion: really interesting topics, great taste on both sides and highly well informed you two are. It was a pleasure to listen to your conversation! Long live the box sets😀
It was certainly a fun topic. So many great boxsets from so many of our favorite bands it was super hard to choose. We problem could have covered twice as many if we wanted 😂
The collab I’ve been waiting for!!!
Been a fan of Brendon for awhile, so it’s awesome to see him on SoT! Hope to see u again on the channel!
Great to see you two guys get together.
It's great to see two channels that I watch come together. Great job guys.
Congratulations Brendon
This was great, hope to see more!🎧🙏🏻
Thanks, you guys. Thoroughly engrossing video. Especially love hearing your thought process in evaluating a set and the pros/cons of whether to buy. Still tempted to grab those SDE editions Goats Head Soup etc. simply for the large artwork.
Brendon is a walking encyclopedia of popular rock and prog and although he and I diverge in taste our reasoning in our tastes is very similar. I'm glad he's getting more exposure with you. You two guys have so much it puts mine to shame, especially box sets because I've never had the money to do it. I always enjoy yours and his shows.
Great episode!!!!
My two favorite TH-camrs! Awesome content. Please have Brendon more often and vice versa! Victor
Based on the discussion, I just bought Jethro Tull Boxes Stormwatch and Broadsword & The Beast.
This was a long show but you guys kept my interest throughput! I think my first box sets where The Who's Maximum R & B, Deep Purple's Listen, Learn, Read On and Yes's YESYEARS they've come on a long way since then. The main reason I buy them now is for the unreleased live concerts & the bluray as im a 5:1 guy. Many albums I have grown to like much more hearing them in the immersive context. My gripe is actually more of an annoyance with myself as they are always limited pressings and there's a few I have missed out on such as Lizzy's Live & Dangerous, luckily this is getting a repress in October and have pre-ordered. Luckily I bought the Genesis box sets on release and the 5:1 of The Lamb with the slide viuals used on the tour is wonderful. I also love those Classic Album box sets series as its nice to have them all in one place and free up some space!
Great to see brendon on SOT hopefully see him again nice one pete 👍
Awesome, great you had Brendan on Pete, he’s great and as everyone says he is very knowledgeable about music 😀 Rock on! 🤟
Thanks Lucus!
Very much enjoyed this chat and video. I like hearing about what influences people's buying decisions esp for me as someone who doesn't really buy box sets.
Great show!
Another knowledgeable guest. Great show.
Phil Aston Villa would've been great for this too he does great reviews of box sets. Will be watching!
I’d love to do another one of these with 2 or 3 others joining and get a real sort of round table discussion going. Maybe not speaking about specific selected boxsets but talk about the industry, what’s working and what’s not. Could be a cool follow up video.
That would be cool I'd like to see that too. Nice job!
Brendon at SoT is fantastic! Love both channels...keep it going!
Excellent episode! I love and hate box sets haha. Currently anxiously checking my mailbox for the new Little Man box from Cardiacs.
Cool...I hadda look twice when I saw the thumbnail. Great guys, with deep knowledge....and fantastic Rooms!
You guys are the only ones in music knowledge that i subscribe. Thanks guys
I LOVE the T-shirts!
I love the Elton jewel case and David Bowie"Toy'. Love seeing Pete with Brendon doing music reviews. My favorites!
