Great presentation. Looks like a nice box set. I'm not into buying box sets. I tend to baby it. Then it turns into a shrine. It's a OCD thing. Lol... Thank you and Take care
Oh i get that! I take the records out of the box and put them next to it on the shelf. That way im more likely to listen to them. If they remain in the box, I’ll never pull em out. 🎶☮️🎶
Great job, Mike. I'm really happy that you took a look at it for us. Mine will arrive in a couple weeks... it's near your location at the moment LOL. 😄
Hi Mike!!! that's a very cool unboxing and glad to see it arrived safe and sound..... glad to hear you're enjoyng and very pleased the sound quality and mix of some of those releases, i think it's the way to go when you spend big bucks... cheers and thanks for sharing
Well done Mike! I bought the 2016 issue box back then. Spun it once and filed it away. I just Ultrasonically cleaned mine and they were very dirty. Same with my Beatles Mono box as well. Definitely want to spin Beggars Banquet and Let It Bleed right away. Again, great review! 👍
I am so with you on this. Beggars Banquet sounds incredible in mono. 🔥 I love Their Satanic Majesties Request. It's extremely overrated. This box set is wonderful. It's great to see your excitement for this box set. Take care.
Great box set! I may have to do a Purge of my albums to get this. The most I ever spent on a box set was about the same as this, it was on the Greatful dead box
I played them in order, it was nice to see how they transformed into Rock band they are are today. I also wished they would have put better sleeves on them.
Good video on the box set! I liked hearing your thoughts on the Beggars Banquet and Let It Bleed sounding good in mono, I agree. I own the CD version of this set and my favorite albums are the ones from Aftermath through to Let It Bleed. I have to give the earlier albums more listens.
Hey Sgt!! Im SO familiar with the later recordings because they’ve always been my favorite Stones albums, but Ive been listening to the early ones a bunch since getting the box. Worth every penny!! Stay well. ☮️
Hey Mike; I really enjoy all your videos especially the concert reviews. I don’t get out very often anymore. I have a couple a couple of upcoming concerts at SF Jazz next month.
Man I want this so badly but not sure if I want to shell out the money, especially since it doesn't have a hardcover book as part of it. Enjoy, I'm still pondering on whether I'll get it!
As of 2024, the price on Amazon has dropped significantly and if you sign up for their credit card, you can get an additional discount. I paid $209 for this set, new on Amazon in January 2024.
Hey Mike. Great video review. I have one on pre-order here in Australia but it's taking a bit longer to get here than everywhere else. Every review of the box has me looking forward to getting ot even more. I have a couple of suggestions though. Firstly with the resealable sleeves, try turning the plastic sleeve opening to the side opening and have the flap seal on the back cover. No danger then of wrecking the sleeve while pulling the record out. That's what I did with The Beatles In Mono box. Also I have bought, in advance, some poly inner sleeves to fit inside the cardboard inners. I mostly have the Australian Stones LP discography but it's mainly in stereo and a mix of the UK & US versions. I also have UK mono pressings of their first 2 but I don't mind the repetition. Thanks again doing for this video. I may do my own one on my channel when the Stones Box arrives. Cheers mate 👍😎
@@hubtunes9607 Beggars Banquet and Let It Bleed are not dedicated mono mixes, as none were originally made in mono, these two songs are stereo mixes folded-down into mono.
I hemmed and hawed, and just decided to pick it up. I found a new copy on Amazon for 40% off at $300 with 2-day shipping. Can’t wait. Thanks for the great review. Why can’t poly sleeves become a norm?
@@hubtunes9607 Sometimes it pays to be slow Love your HubTunes channel and also the Guncles - a riot I am a Chicago guy as well - Dusty Grooves, Oak Park Records and Hyde Park Records are my main shops
@@hubtunes9607 Its still available and with a significant reduction in price from a year ago. I bought mine on 1/29/24, the price at that time was $289, less than a month later on 2/9/24 its gone up to $389. I got lucky with regards to the timing of my purchase, plus I applied for their credit card and got an additional $100 discount for a total of $209!
Another really really Goode one..thank you..another barn burner...!!!
Thanx Doc !! 🎶☮️🎶

I bought the set from Abkco and paid $374.99 It Sounds amazing
Fantastic!! 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
I paid $209 on Amazon.

That Dead Box is great too Rod!

I probably should have done them in order too. Guess I still can. LOL

I am one of the lucky ones that my Amazon UK order haven’t been cancelled. I just got notification from them that it should be shipped mid February.
Hey Nicole! Hope you are well. What?!?! Wow! I thought they ALL were canceled . Good for you. Great value!!!

@@nicolelynnkucera thanx! Got a bunch of concerts coming up in February. Didn’t go to a single on in January. I enjoy doing the reviews

It’s definitely worth it, but it is a lot of money. The book is a tad disappointing

Too much for me, but I am tempted. Love SMR since I was a child.
Its well worth it. They sound great!
Mine is arriving tomorrow and I got it for 320 dollar on Amazon here in Sweden.
Absolutely fantastic! Congrats 🎉

Awesome stuff! Thats a great idea about the sleeves. I may try that. Enjoy your box! Im sure you’ll be thrilled!! 🎶☮️🎶
Let it Bleed in mono? Interesting. Had no idea there was a mono issue of that! It's not a fold down?
Nope
The mono version of Let It Bleed in the Rolling Stones Mono box set is a fold down
