Probably got most of these on other comps but I'm sure I'll get sucked in and end up buying it.:upside_down_face:

As we all do!
PM

Well yes I did get sucked in and ended up buying it and glad I did. It really has just about every essential 60s beat/RnB/freakbeatNZ track on it.
Plus it's always good to have the clam shell box set and the band info notes are excellent.
Not that expensive either.:ok_hand:

Yes, agreed, it is a very good set. It covers all the bases and really is a pistol packing firecracker of a set, very glad I got it.
