Some nice choices. I would love that Brummels set on vinyl. Cherry Red and Grapefruit in the U.K. have issued some lovely box Psych / folk sets this year.
This year was great for box sets. I purchased the Beatles Let It Be LP/CD deluxe sets, The John Lennon Plastic ONO BAND CD set, The Who's Sell Out set, and The Beach Boys Feel Flows set. All of them amazing. Iam intrigued by the Nick Cave set, I Think I'm Going Weird set which seems like a British Nuggets, The Steppenwolf and Beau Brummels sets also look interesting too. You have an incredible record LP/CD collection Mazzy!
I love the Steppenwolf boxed set..they were the first group I ever saw live ! I was wondering if you'd mention the George Harrison boxed set. I love these videos ! Great summaries of all the albums too !
I'll have to get this Steppenwolf box set. I hear the sound is the best ever. You were right about the first two albums. Those mixes sound incredible. Good review. Just sayin
Very enjoyable insight Mazzy thanks, Only have Nick Caves but Dylan, Beau Brummels and Steppenwolf to order . My George Harrison vinyl albums boxset will suffice.
1. Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds: B Sides And Rarities 2. Motorhead: No Sleep Till Hammersmith 3. Nirvana: Nevermind 30th 4. The Pop Group: Y 5. Onslaught: Force From Hell 1983-2007 6. Mott The Hoople: Mental Train (The Island Years) 1969-1971 7. Tom Petty: American Treasure 8. John Lennon: Signature Box 9. The Cars - The Elektra Years 1978-1987 As you can see most of these has been released earlier but I bought then this year Cheers from Finland
Nice overview of some great sets..I gotta get the Steppenwolf box!!! The Dylan box is so good..unexpectedly for the time period it covered..thanks Mazzy👍👍❤️❤️Glen
One you left out - Pastor T. L. Barrett and the Youth for Christ Choir "I SHALL WEAR A CROWN" five LP box from numero Group. Given your love of gospel you may already own some of these recordings but this box is topshelf stuff. Cheers!
great box sets, I just can't afford to get them all. I did get the Beach Boys and Let It Be, also Joni Mitchell archive vol 2. The Beatles is my favorite. I bought two of them, broke on set up and sold separately, made enough to pay for both. Thanks for sharing Take care
Hey Mazzy, Just a friendly FYI here... I'd be really grateful to you if you could give your quick listening impressions of the boxed sets & smaller compilation record sets that you review. Frequently, a more serious collector will already own the individual original releases. But how does the remixed box set compare in quality? Sometimes, remixes sound worse than the original primarily due to the use of too much compression during the remastering process. Just a simple 'great audio quality..better than the originals that I've heard' , etc. This would be very helpful to me & perhaps to many of your other viewers. Thanks, David-
Surprised you didn't include the Alvin and the Chipmunks super-deluxe box set on nut brown vinyl. Includes the legendary unreleased 1967 album with Phil Spector, the Chelsea Hotel demos with Nico, and a recently discovered 1975 concert recording from the Budokan....
Shut up Mazzy! . Just Kidding. lol Keep up all the great work. BTW, you have an incredibly chill & pleasant speaking voice...way better than Richard Nixon's. lol
as you know, i love nick cave...not surprised it's your number one box set...and that concert with warren ellis is gonna be brilliant...also glad to see dylan pop up in here as well....hope you had a great thanksgiving...peace to you always my friend...rocky
Nice overview, but how could you have left out 'Listen To The River: St. Louis '71 '72 '73' by the Grateful Dead? I know we've come to expect outstanding GD box sets and this is definitely in in the Top 10 of 2021 category 😃
I watched the Tod Haynes VU film and am half way through the Beatles Get Back. As far as bands that influenced me I would say the Velvet Underground more so, but as a child being born in the UK and living amongst the Beatles presence from 1967 - 72 maybe that was in my bones. I have to say the Peter Jackson documentary blows the Velvet Underground film out of the water and there is no comparison. Maybe I have read too much about the Velvets but I didn’t like it that much but am mesmerised and entranced by the Beatles series. Cheers
Nice choices! I would like to point out one thing you mention about the "Get Back" documentary. There are some people, who don't want to pay for Disney+. And what about us, here in Czech republic and other European states. We want to watch the doc (and we will) and be happy to pay for Disney+ and watch it. Sadly, Disney+ just show us a middle finger. So, what are our options that searching the internet for other ways?
Hey Mazzy. You’ve still got the Beau Brummels boxset’s insert box the wrong way round! The writing should be on the outside and that’s why the insert box is sticking out slightly. ‘Bothered’ me on the last video so I had to say something this time… What a box though.
@@mazzysmusic I have the DCC LP release and an early '80's pressing. I'm interested in this box set, more for the two bonus CD's. I think the alternate takes will be much better on this set, than on the previous Doors anniversary releases.
Did Apple ever issue a vinyl box set for Sergeant Peppers like they did for the White Album and Let it Be. The most I can find on Discogs is a 2 LP set which is a little pricey. Guess I will be content with the single vinyl that I have plus the mono cd box of all their albums.
It’s a photo book I edited from one of the photographers (Stephen Goldblatt) who spent a day in 1968 photographing the Beatles waking around London. Known as a Mad Day Out.
Hi Mazzy you had me at box sets love everyone of them some I have have the let it be and beach boys feel flows absolute beauty and my favorite of all their reissues even ahead if pet sounds and smile imagine that will have do dig deep and get one of those cherry red Beau Brussels steppenwolf or electric prunes looking at seriously acquiring the band stage fright 50 th anniversay unfortunately Santa never brings me box sets God bless you mazzy thank God for music and the physical media my salvation my ultimate food for my soul ♥
There's a pink one, and a green one, and a blue one, and a yellow one, and they're all made out of ticky tacky, and they all look just the same... Oh, how the other half lives. I'm actually buying a box set next year! Already pre-ordered. Look forward to my Top One Box Set of 2022 video next year. I'm starting to play a Mazzy drinking game. I have to Take a shot every time you say Curated. Man, I'm steaming after this video! Cheers - Hedley
"The Who Sell Out" box set was released this year. Most of my 2021 Top 5 box sets are included here. Only my #1 is missing. The "Metallica (The Black Album)" box set. The others are: The Who, The Beach Boys, The Beatles and John Lennon. Bob Dylan just misses my Top 5.
Hi Mazzy, count me among those who won't do Disney. Rsearch what they did to their IT workers back in about 2014, making them train their replacements. I can't forgive them. Hopefully I can watch at a friend's house but each person has to draw the line somewhere so no not shame on me, shame on Disney.
Thanks for posting this timely video.

Cat Stevens 'Teaser and the Firecat' is just marvellous. A must have!
Thanks again Mr. M.

Nice choices. 2021 really has been a great year for box sets.
Agree 100% regarding the comments about "Fashion plate" Glyn Johns. What a chill dude. Fantastic. Love ya Mazzy.
I loved his garb !!!

Very enjoyable insight Mazzy thanks, Only have Nick Caves but Dylan, Beau Brummels and Steppenwolf to order . My George Harrison vinyl albums boxset will suffice.
I love the Dylan box set!! Just saw him live in Boston this past weekend. Good times.

Loved all the box sets Dylan and Steppenwolf have my attention. Enjoyed the video well done.

Great video! Thanks for sharing
Thanks Mazzy for mentioning the Steppenwolf set (which I didn’t know about). Just ordered it from the UK.

The Mars Volta - La Realidad de los Suenos box set was my favorite...and you know it's good because my wife hated it before I even opened it.
Hey Mazzy,
Just a friendly FYI here... I'd be really grateful to you if you could give your quick listening impressions of the boxed sets & smaller compilation record sets that you review.

My wife during part three of the Get Back doc, "wow, Glen Johns is yummy", LOL.
Beau Brummels , the set for me
Want them all though
great choices...personally, the one that i'm most excited about this year is the Doors L.A.Woman 50th anniversary
Shut up Mazzy! .
Just Kidding. lol
Keep up all the
great work.
BTW, you have an incredibly chill & pleasant speaking
voice...way better than
Richard Nixon's. lol
What happened to your George Harrison crate? The gnomes run away with it? Oh, there it is - a two second tease
In no particular order my 2021 box set purchases are Plastic Ono Band,Let It Be,All Things Must Pass,Jesus Christ Superstar,Fugazi.
Great video Mazzy!!
as you know, i love nick cave...not surprised it's your number one box set...and that concert with warren ellis is gonna be brilliant...also glad to see dylan pop up in here as well....hope you had a great thanksgiving...peace to you always my friend...rocky

From Elvis in Memphis box set is incredible
Steppenwolf yes. Beau Brummels I don't know. Might be one to check out. My very best box set.....Johnny Cash's Unearthed vinyl box.
Joni has some nice box sets out.😀
Saw Nick Cave And The Bad Seeds around the time of the Henry’s Dream LP. The band really rocked that gig. Was a damn good show.
I watched the Tod Haynes VU film and am half way through the Beatles Get Back. As far as bands that influenced me I would say the Velvet Underground more so, but as a child being born in the UK and living amongst the Beatles presence from 1967 - 72 maybe that was in my bones.

Fair point. I suspect the doc will make it around the world soon enough ✌🏽

What, no Nick Cage? The Con Air remix box set would be amazing! :-)
"Tug O War" Heh no pun intended, Sir? :)
are the Beau Brummels and Steppenwolf boxed sets those "Mini LP" CDs or just sleeves?
And The Doors' "L. A. Woman" box set is still to come. That could make my top 2021 box set list as well. I'm looking forward to that.
Yeah I’m been skipping those Doors sets. Just keeping with OGs and the Analogue Productions 45RPM issues ✌🏽
@@mazzysmusic I have the DCC LP release and an early '80's pressing. I'm interested in this box set, more for the two bonus CD's. I think the alternate takes will be much better on this set, than on the previous Doors anniversary releases.
👌👌

And if you decide to shelf the insides of the Uber George you can place all the other box sets inside the crate! 😃😉
hi, can I ask what the record is with the black cover & silver writing "MAD DAY" ?
It’s a photo book I edited from one of the photographers (Stephen Goldblatt) who spent a day in 1968 photographing the Beatles waking around London. Known as a Mad Day Out.

Well said re Get Back. If you like The Beatles (and can get it) just pay the f***ing £8 (or equivalent) and enjoy it.
No David Bowie box?!?!?
I wonder because I know you like him. Very important and big box in 2021.
✌️
I’ve debated getting this Bowie box. I have two of the others on vinyl and three on CD so I might Siri g for the CD version this time. 🤷🏻♂️
The word for today is... curated.
There's a pink one, and a green one, and a blue one, and a yellow one, and they're all made out of ticky tacky, and they all look just the same...

POB box was the best, Let It Be is a dust collector.

Hey mazzy
Hey K. The Dead St Louis would have been 11 ☮️
Albums on the floor? Sacrilege!
You missed 'Tattoo You', you dufus !!!!!!!
I didn’t miss it. I didn’t pick it 😎🤷🏻♂️
