I'd have to agree. It's excellent and breathtaking in it's scope. The 20 cd set spans from about 77-2002. Just amazing.

is this set a bootleg or is it a legal set?

How do you know that I didn't type that up from memory?

The Work Volumes 1 and 2 are almost as essential as the official albums released in the 80's.
The Work Volumes 1 and 2 are more essential than the official albums released in the 90's.

The Work Volumes 3 - 5 are as inessential as the albums released in the 90's.

Do yourself a favour and find a copy of volumes 1 and 2!
