Segue Myles Posted October 5, 2018 Share Posted October 5, 2018 I actually want this haha I haven't collected the previous box sets. If I collect any sets, I want the Sectors. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rushman14 Posted October 5, 2018 Share Posted October 5, 2018 I have the deluxe boxes of 2112 and AFTK. They are beautiful, and it looks like I must have this as well. Bastards still finding ways to take my money :) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edhunter Posted October 5, 2018 Share Posted October 5, 2018 So a bunch of repackaged material and a boot. Well done KISS, you taught them well. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zappafrank Posted October 5, 2018 Share Posted October 5, 2018 Inexcusable that they're not releasing a full live version of the title track, unless that listing above is a very very off typo. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
78jazz Posted October 5, 2018 Share Posted October 5, 2018 (edited) Time to decide if I spend $20 on the 2CD version. Bummer that this does not have a complete show. Edit: This appears to just be a rerelease of material that was available. Unless I get the LP as a Christmas gift...

zappafrank Posted October 5, 2018 Share Posted October 5, 2018 I wonder if they're (whoever's releasing this, not the boys) banking on the diehards plunking down the money for the all of the extras of the super duper wizz bang edition of the set, and the live cd is just lip service to casuals.

Mr. JD Posted October 5, 2018 Share Posted October 5, 2018 I want the blu ray. Don’t really care about the rest. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bastards still finding ways to take my money :) Not mine. As much as I'd like to have all the box set swag they've been pumping out, I got bills to pay. I have the albums and DVDs. That'll do. Although I do really want that R40 bonus disc DVD. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rocketom Posted October 5, 2018 Share Posted October 5, 2018 Still cant believe that in the late 1970's they didnt film a show. All the Crappy bands that have concert video's from back then and Rush could'nt have filmed 1 from either AFTK or Hemispheres. Dumb Asses! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toymaker Posted October 5, 2018 Share Posted October 5, 2018 (edited) Bitchin! One complaint: the vinyl is the wrong goddamned color. Edited October 5, 2018 by toymaker Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe Lee isn't wild about his vocal performances from those shows - he found it rough to sing the vocals on the album in the first place. And maybe they can't go in and doctor it and re-record vocals at this point? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zepptrap Posted October 5, 2018 Share Posted October 5, 2018 Why a live version of 2112 not Hemispheres from Tucson? This is so perplexing!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ElfDude Posted October 5, 2018 Share Posted October 5, 2018 Just to make sure I get it (yeah, I can be kinda slow sometimes)... if I purchase the 2 CD set, disc two will contain the previously unreleased live stuff and disc one will be Hemispheres. Is disc one a remastered version of Hemispheres? As in less tape hiss and stuff than my old CD of Hemispheres? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grasbo Posted October 5, 2018 Share Posted October 5, 2018 So just to clear this up,is just the Sphere and not the whole title track.Did they play it and is it avaidable on a boot.At least we don't have Dream Theater doing the title track(i do like Dream Theater)or Lady Ga Ga or someone doing covers.At least this release is all Rush and Hugh Syme looks like he has done a better job.I may have to save my pennies but bloody Xmas is coming and the car rego.

grasbo Posted October 5, 2018 Share Posted October 5, 2018 Is there any more videoe footage from Pinkpop?I like how on The Lighted Stage how Kirk Hammets eyes glaze over when Alex does that solo on La Villa. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As in less tape hiss and stuff than my old CD of Hemispheres? Can only assume it is a recent or the most recent mastered copy? I don't know. I generally can't tell the difference myself. Edit: according to the video I posted above, it's a 2015 remaster. Edited October 5, 2018 by toymaker Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Edit: This appears to just be a rerelease of material that was available. Unless I get the LP as a Christmas gift... I'll be getting the double CD at some point because it might just be the best sounding Hemispheres CD I'll ever own (Although the Audio Fidelity Gold CD sounds pretty sweet.) I hope they at least release all of the 2015 remasters. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ytserush Posted October 6, 2018 Share Posted October 6, 2018 Why a live version of 2112 not Hemispheres from Tucson? This is so perplexing!!!!! If I were to guess, it's because there's a ton of 2112 reissues out there and the label might like to sell off some of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Direct from Pinkpop bootleg which is about 55 minutes in total. Then 2112 is from the Tuscon boot. They might of course have the original master tapes which would make these the definitive versions.
