Chess Blues CD Box Collection - 9/10 - $25/shipped

I've had this box set for a long time and simply don't listen to it very much anymore, really at all. It's a collection of the Chess Records company blues recordings from 1947-1967.

It varies from raw to polished to semi-polished. I wouldn't call it a re-master but it does contain 19 unreleased tracks from the label at that time.

The box contains a 30 page booklet that describes each track and/or artist, some longer than others, in regards to history and photos. This is just as cool as the collection really.

Aside from some rubs on the outside edges its in near mint condition. The discs are in mint condition and have only been played...probably 3 times since I bought it 10+ years ago.

Includes: Original box, internal CD plastic crate & 30 page booklet.
CTC BBQ Amplifier, Sonic Frontiers Line3 Pre-Amplifier and Wadia 581 SACD player. Speakers? Always changing but for now, Mission Argonauts I picked up for $50 bucks, mint.

    I've got that set and it's excellent music with a good re-mastering on it.
    I have a lot of the Chess. Happy with all of it.

    Ed- I need your personal information, including email for my shipping records. I was surprised to not have you in them. The Chess is boxed and ready to go as soon as you send me that stuff.

    I also owe you beads and shells for a third SL2500. Let's worry about that later as I told Lou to keep it for any local SL2500 Polkie issues, that may arise locally...for whatever reasons for the moment. Thanks for the two you hooked me up on already.

    In regards to my SRT rebuild, I'd like to start hiding in your bushes, plus I might have some extra goodies for the two of us....email me thru here please,
