Sting / The Complete Studio Collection
One man, 12 albums, three vinyl box sets…
Six months on from Sting‘s Studio Collection vinyl box set comes The Complete Studio Collection, an expanded edition which adds four further albums…
In addition to the eight studio albums featured on the first box (across 11LPs), this new box gives you his three Deutsche Grammophon albums – Songs From The Labyrinth (2006), If On A Winter’s Night… (2009) and Symphonicities (2010) – and his latest album 57th & 9th.
The original set is apparently sold out, although they still seem to be available for now. If you are feeling miffed at having bought an ‘incomplete’ studio collection, the label are also offering The Studio Collection: Volume II.
What this is, is a box set with just the additional four albums, with what the label describes as “a placeholder for all of the original set”. That’s a tad confusing, because that surely means if you buy this box and then transfer the LPs from your original box, you have a) an empty box (the old ‘Studio Collection’) and b) a full collection in a box titled ‘volume two’ and not ‘complete collection’.
In SDE’s mind it would have been more logical to either NOT have the placeholder in this box, so the buyer maintains two boxes, or keep the placeholder but label this box “The Complete Studio Collection” so that when you do transfer your other records across the title on the box makes sense!
Both new Studio Collection vinyl boxes are released on 14 April 2017. The original Studio Collection set is still available now.
