Title: No gems left in the attic
Review: As other reviewers have expressed rather eloquently, the Band is responsible for producing some of the finest music of the 20th century.All the evidence one needs for this assertion is provided in this fabulous package.However, as it has already been pointed out by previous reviewers, this box set is preaching to the choir. And, as a member of that choir, I contend that the book alone is worth the price. Also, the few live performances provided on the DVD were a most welcome surprise, as all of them were worthy performances showing the Band at the height of their powers.But, regarding the unreleased musical material, sadly, I don't feel that any of it is essential, as the best of it has already been included on the remastered original albums.So the attic has proved to be bare. No matter. Truely this box set is one of the finest you'll see. A fine tribute to five musicians who have left a musically legacy that will live on for the ages.
