Limited 10 CD box. 1967-1974 is a set that celebrates 50 years since the eponymous debut album of British blues/rock band Ten Years After. This collection gathers long-players from the Chrysalis and Deram eras and includes eight studio albums, one live album and a bonus disc of never before heard recordings from 1972 called The Cap Ferrat Sessions, which has been newly mixed by Chris Kimsey. All the albums have been remastered from the original quarter-inch production master tapes. The unreleased- The Cap Ferrat Sessions - exists thanks to Alvin Lee's widow, who discovered a box of recordings in their house in Spain. Chris Kimsey recorded and engineered the original recordings during The Rock N Roll Music To The World album sessions. Kimsey: These re-discovered recordings were not rough demos, not rehearsals, but completed masters that did not make the album due to the time limitations of vinyl at the time..

Great remasters.
Just to make clear regards the negative reviews. This is the same boxset released in 2017. Originally limited to 1500 at £90, it sold out and is now exchanging hands at around £150 or more if you can find it! Now it has a repress at £35ish, Bargain thank you. Only difference is you just get a reduced package. The original release was a nice bound book edition with the cd’s inserted. The repress has been shrunk to a clam edition. Nice booklet still provided with all the info from the 2017 edition in a less lavish form. CD’s are the same wonderful remasters, contained in the slip cases which would have housed them in the original deluxe book format. If you are a fan buy with confidence.

10 Albums in One Package
If you are careful and research your prices this can be picked up for a decent price per album, considering some are quite difficult to find. Great package and covers their important work.

... familiar with some of their stuff from compilations and best ofs etc
Well I was already familiar with some of their stuff from compilations and best ofs etc.but never heard any of the studio albums in full and as they were a local band to me and I'm a fan of 70's blues rock I thought I would check them in full. This box is their 10 studio albums in one box with a book too. The actual CD's are part of the book and are in card sleeves which are at first hard to get out and its a bit fiddly to get the cds from the sleeves but since once I got them out i rippped them I probably wont need to use them again. Not read the book yet howeve but it looks okr.

cheap reproductions
All covers are badly copied reproductions showing cover stains, obviously taken from badly worn vinyl albums. The discs disappointedly have the same awful picture on each disc.The only saving grace is the unreleased disc and the well produced booklet.Avoid this and buy the superior remastered editions with extra tracks issued a few years ago.
