Cheap Box Sets

My best-buy box set ever:  The Beaux Arts Trio's 60th anniversary box.  You can find it for under 2.00 per disc (I got the 60 CD set for 100.00) if you try.  Tremendous variety and consistency.  Don't be afraid to take the plunge on this one.

Got that right tosta , Beaux Arts Trio was a powerhouse group that has never been equaled . Never played a bad note .

As we are onto classical music, I would note there are now many inexpensive but high quality classical CD box sets available, mostly from the "big three": Universal Music, Sony Music, and Warner Classics.

A standout example would be Deutsche Grammophone’s (Universal Music) "The Originals" 50 CD box sets, Volumes I and II, which generally comprise top notch performances by many of DG’s finest artists over the last many years. Selling at around $100 per box -- $2.00 -- per CD on Amazon, these are one of the great bargains of the century (so far).

There's another Oliver Nelson box set that I've been watching on Amazon. 

Oliver Nelson: The Argo, Verve and Impulse Big Band Studio Sessions Import
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B000FBIYHU/ref=wl_it_dp_o_pC_nS_ttl?_encoding=UTF8&colid=LARRM9BR2U0Z&...

Only 6 disks, fabulous music, selling for $199 used and $279 new.

Strangely enough, it can still be had from the record company, Mosaic, at $102. You gotta watch out for those Amazon sharks.
