Kris Kristofferson / The Complete Monument & Columbia Albums box
We told you about this new Kris Kristofferson albums box back in March, but are pleased to be able to now fill in the blanks with full details around The Complete Monument & Columbia Albums Collection box set…
This is a massive collection of 16 CDs which brings together 11 studio albums, recorded in the years spanning 1970 through to 1981, and an impressive five CDs of rarities, including complete unreleased concert recordings, non-LP singles, studio outtakes, and previously unreleased demos.
In addition to this wealth of music the packaging includes ‘facsimile sleeves’ said to accurate reproduce original album artwork (expectations should be managed as far as this goes) and the box set includes a deluxe booklet featuring essays and liner notes penned especially for this anthology including words by Monument Records founder Fred Foster, American writer Mikal Gilmore and Don Was.
This will be issued on 10 June 2016. In the meantime check out that great Spain pre-order price!
