I was just wondering if anyone has picked up the new CSNY 1974 box set and, if so, what you think of it.

I was at the local mall yesterday and stopped at FYE and saw it there. It is an impressive looking box set and it gets good reviews on amazon.

I am thinking of buying it and wonder if anyone here has heard it. How does it sound?

Thanks.

    Sounds like one I need to pick up. Thanks for letting me us know about it. I'd be interessted in hearing others' thoughts on it for anyone who has listened to it.

    Taken from a recent Audioholics reply regarding "Club Polk" and Polk speakers:
    "I'm yet to hear a Polk speaker that merits more than a sentence and 60 seconds discussion." :\
    My response is: If you need 60 seconds to respond in one sentence, you probably should't be evaluating Polk speakers.....

    Every music release gets 90 pages on Hoffman!
    Good music, a good source, and good power can make SDA's sing. Tubes make them dance.

    I picked it up on Amazon and got a chance last week to listen to it and watch the DVD. You can nit-pick the individual songs they selected, however overall as a representative collection of the groups work, it is very good. It seemed to be well mastered based on some of the comments I have read about how the tapes were recorded. I would give it my recommendation.
