Can anyone comment on the Plangent Process playback system? They used it on the box sets apparently. It's supposed to be a digital transfer from the tapes that corrects for the chatter as the tape passes the head. Are these halfway decent? The old recordings were never hifi quality.Finally the days of £300 second hand copies and dodgy fake pressings are over.
For those interested Springsteens " The Ghost Of Tom Joad" is finally re-released as a stand alone album on vinyl.

As with some threads being as nought without pictures this thread is a hobbled horse without links to where the damn things are to be had from.
This is wonderful:

always pays to pre-order or pay silly prices & mint originals can fetch $4000-6000
we had been trying to license these five rare LPs as a "dream" reissue project for many years. It took a long time to persuade and secure publishing/mechanical/artwork rights from Universal and at the time of finally brokering a license (around a year ago) Jwe where unsure of precisely what the level of demand might be for such an expensive box set. The license cost was astronomical before even considering the manufacturing cost of lookalike flipback sleeves and textured slipcases. 1000 copies were agreed upon . The inked deal sadly does not allow for represses and to do so requires another contract to be agreed. this item was made available for pre-sale, i, in September 2018. Once the copies actually arrived they unexpectedly sold out in minutes.
