ROLLING STONES – Collector Treasures Vol.1 68-74 (13CD Canister)

Stunning collection! The BEST quality available…this reminds me of those exhaustive Beatles studio collections that reveal every detail, every alternate mix, etc. Very careful presentation, includes pretty much everything you’d want to hear and then some. RIP Charlie Watts
