Interesting...just in time for Christmas. Of course, wait until we buy them individually.

I don't see a blu ray bundle though...

Well I don't have all the individual shows...wonder if it will be available as a US package.

Thanks, Treacles....this would get me through the cold winter nicely.

I guess with all this stuff the real key is to just wait awhile and you'll get a better deal.

Thanks for the heads up!

Listed at $77.99 on Amazon U.S.

From the Vault: Complete Series 1 Box Set

And after a couple of months, the price will probably go down from there on the Amazon 'marketplace'.
Seeing as I've only bought the official Marquee so far (which I've had as a boot for years), looks like I'll probably be picking this up to get the rest.

Wow thanks, might have to go for that!
And with international shipping at $9.98 Canadian, brings the total to $82 Canadian or $62.83 U.S. Cheap!

Nice.

I don't know if this is such a good deal: No CD:s included and bluray not available.

Is it me, or do each of the individual dvd boxes look smaller than the next?

I think it´s a good deal for those who already have the audio downloaded - so they dont have to pay twice.

Right. And the next step would be 10 (or 11) CDs boxset with audio material of all six available concerts. OK, make it 13 CDs dropping Brussels 73 as bonus discs.

Marketing, you know

Except for Leeds "82, whick will be out in November, all these dvds were already available separatly, don't see where the news is!

And all are packaged together in a tidy nice box at what I assume is a much lower price then when sold separately?
For those of us who didn't buy everything separately, this is indeed news...good news!

Ok I understand, for people who didn't bought the boxes separatly this is a good news, the right word is "BARGAIN", but at least there is nothing new!

Oh, I'm sure they've thought of that, and will include at least one 'extra cut' on one of the DVD's, that they'd previously removed so we'll have justification for our wives as to why we 'need' to buy this new release!

I'm lining up my arguments already!

Anyone notice that this is titled From the Vault: Complete Series 1 Box Set

OH, they have plans for us...yes they do!

The one question is: Why did it take them 30 years to open the vault? I would have loved the Hampton and Leeds '82 releases even in the late 80's...
Now, it's not the same thing really. Too many years under the bridge...

Like sitting on these 'valuable assets' assuming they will keep appreciating over time, when instead they've developed mold and are now depreciating.

Its as though the record company is trying to make whatever money it still can on these.

I have to say though, 30 years ago I'm sure I couldn't have afforded the onslaught of new material...at least there's been time to save up!

...but we paid much more (or at least I did..) for bootlegs back then! Some of them almost unlistenable.

I will admit to only ever buying one vinyl bootleg in the day, Paris en Printemp, which was essentially a poorly recorded version of some of Love You Live.

That turned me off completely because it was pricey! You may have a point, but it would be interesting to know how much in actual volume bootlegs sold. At that point in time they were interested in moving millions of units for each release.

I don't think that would have been possible with so many different official releases in such a short period of time.

Sure, but their enormous bootleg catalogue tells you one or two things about the demand on Stones live recordings back then ... Which they have choosen to satisfy 30 years later on...
I think they could have been a little more generous with official live releases back then. But that's just an (my) opinion.

well no doubt, but I remember them being criticized for all the live albums they actually did put out, especially as we got into the 90s with Flashpoint, Stripped, No Security and Live Licks. I guess the real issue is they didn't release the GOOD live albums!

Series 1...interesting...and I just convinced my wife Leeds 82 was gonna be the last. Guess I need to start playing the lottery.

It is a statement of sorts...I mean they must have sold a reasonable amount of these to feel confident enough that there'd be at least one more series of them.

I think it will be a Rolling Stones Christmas after all. Santa will recieve the order soon enough...

After having bought all the releases separately in the vinyl/dvd packages I think I'll be able to resist this one.

Again for me what is telling is they're labelling this as series 1.

Well, It would be a shame if they stopped this early, especially with all of the (mostly) positive feedback.
