Remember when reissues were about music and not collecting?

Love these! They were the 30th Anniversary ones... now they're onto the 40th ones... but those 30th ones were all you needed, really. Super Deluxe editions sorta harsh my buzz because I can't afford them which drives the completist in me batshit. The Super Deluxe Station to Station was so droolworthy.

Oh, and the King Crimson ones. Starless is like... if you were a KC superfan, you'd cum in your pants just scanning the Amazon page.

There are so many good deluxe discographies like we're talking about... R.E.M. is awesome. The Beatles and all solo discogs (maybe not Ringo, I suppose) are well-covered. But I think my favourite has to be the Pavement reissues on Matador. Holy Sweet Jesus. Talk about bonus material. I own them all and they're literally my favourite CDs of all time. Like they take each 12-track album and expand it to where it's 50 tracks or so, and it's almost all really good stuff.
