To pop pickers in search of a genuine bargain, the 5 Cd box set of the Cowboy Junkies’ Nomad Series which be released on April 17th 2012 looks too good to be true.
This series comprises the four superb albums the Junkies have released over the past 18 months.
I have reviewed the first and last of these volumes for Whisperin’ & Hollerin’ and can also vouch for the high quality of the other two.
Whatever your currency , £17.02 / $25.00 or €17.82 seems a snip for such exceptional music.
As explained on the merch section of the band’s website the box includes – Renmin Park (Volume 1) – Demons – Vic Chesnutt covers (Volume 2), Sing In My Meadow (Volume 3) and The Wilderness (Volume 4) as well as Extras – 10 songs recorded during the making of The Nomad Series but not included on any of the volumes.
You also get a 52 page colour booklet which I imagine will include the wonderful artwork by Enrique Martinez Celeya.
Buy, buy, buy.
