content: You know, the PR materials sum it up the best; The Band's new career-spanning box set, A Musical History, is the most comprehensive collection ever created for the group. Packaged within a 108-page hardcover book brimming with previously unseen photos and memorabilia are five CDs and one DVD documenting The Band's entire recording career from 1963 to 1976. Among the set's 111 audio and video tracks are 37 previously unreleased recordings and filmed clips captured live and in-studio.Sonically, the material sounds quite dated. I watched a Ronnie Hawkins show from 1995 and he is 10x better today then he was thirty years ago. Granted, I wasn't even born until The Band had already broken up. I only know tracks like "The Weight" and "Who Do You Love" because other bands have covered them or they've been in commercials. All in all, collectors and fans are sure getting a boatload of material.
