Original Album Series, Vol. 2

ALWAYS LIKED THE DOOBIE BROTHERS REAL VALUE FOR YOUR MONEY 5 CDs FOR ABOUT THE PRICE OF ONE CAN'T GO WRONG.

Great value set.

Great 5 cd set.

Given that the generally accepted classic era is 1972-76,then this box set will be more harshly rated(possibly).I love both era's so when it was announced that this set was due i had to buy,specifically to get 1980's 'One Step Closer' and especially,the hard to get and usually expensive 'Farewell Tour' from '83.Slightly disjointed,this set includes '71's debut 'The Doobie Brothers',alongside the 2 mentioned earlier plus 77's 'Livin On The Fault Line' and the mega smash hit album 'Minute From Minute' from 1978.So apart from the early 70's rock of the debut disc its AOR all the way,The Doobies morphing into the Steely Dan arena and by 'One Step Closer',essentially a backing band for singer Michael Mcdonald.Its finally great to get the live album on disc,a decent album covering all the bases.Sound quality is excellent,doesnt say any where wether remastered or not,still the sound quality is excellent.Packaging average,slipcase,replica sleeves and no real info,like the previous set no booklets,With this set its 5 discs for just over a tenner,value for money,no doubt,well worth buying, 4 stars .

I am a big fan bought vol 1 to replace vinyl so had to get these as well not disappointed.

Doobie Brothers with the Michael Mcdonald influence clearly evident in great blue soul funky music.Great vocals and back up musicians - this band has changed from gospel to folk through blues rock and acombination of soul and all with ease and a great deal of success.Loved these as albums - vinyl and love them even more on cd and at these prices.LOVE this band - ENJOY.

Quality music for a bargain price. The bonus is the CD of the Farewell tour.

This is good value (5 x albums for £11), however, missing one album (Minute by Minute) and got two copies of the first album. Considering this item is sealed, so in my eyes, it is not Amazon's fault.
