How much will that set me back?
14 LP and CD it'll probably be around £300
Can't see it listed
Wonder if they'll release a few individually?

Got the Tago Mago on Monday, can't wait for the other stuff next year... it's gonna be tough on the old wallet!
RIP Michael Karoli - one of the GREAT (and massively underrated) guitarists.

Very Interesting ....Ege Bamyasi, remains an all time favourite album of mine along with Soon Over Babluma, Future Days and many others.
....And surely the great Jaki Liebezeit remains one the world's most underated drummers.

I believe the remaster of the Tago Mago studio album discussed here is the same as the version released 2004. But I've also heard that the bonus live CD hasn't been mastered well and runs slow compared to bootleg versions of the same concert.
Note that the current Tago Mago anniversary edition is being released by Mute, and the forthcoming studio boxset is being released by Spoon (Can's own label). Whether the new box set will contain fresh masters is unknown. Unless someone here knows more .........
If you don't know Tago Mago, now is your chance. Fabulous rock music.
