        Great pressings on all 4 records. The chronology of the tracks is a bit scattered compared to the 3CD set but it’s worth getting this 4LP version if you already have all the remastered studio albums. PLUS, the 4LP set includes the full sized 12”x12” book which is the bulk of the cost of this set in the first place isn’t it?! The larger box set book is only about 10”x10”. The LP jackets in this set are all thick quality cardboard but there is really a missed opportunity on the inner sleeves which should have had album related notes and pictures instead of the same inner sleeve image of all of the first 6 Blondie LP’s, Greatest Hits and 7” singles. 1 album like this would have been ok but having all 4 contain the same inner sleeve is pretty boring for such an otherwise exciting and flashy box set. The book certainly makes up for these minor shortcomings. This 4LP set doesn’t quite cull all the extras from the uber boxset but I picked up the 3CD version as well that includes those missing extra tracks. This 4LP set or 3CD set is a must for any Blondie fan!

          I wish the Out In The Streets LP was a stand alone.
