Man, the 2002 Herbie Hancock Box packaging sucks, anyone agrees? I bought this box set today and I have no idea how to get it open again. The first time I opened it, the discs fell and that is the most crappy thing ever. Can anyone else talk about this because Columbia/Epic did a very poor job with this one. I listened to discs 1 and 2 today and it sounds very good. The packaging is just crap. Anyone has this problem? Check me out and add me on:

I got that set a couple of years ago.It's a very nice overview of Hancock's career with a few rare trax ( at least, rare in the U.S.)...
However, Yes, the box is pretty silly.Cool to look at,but barely functional after opening... I put the CDs in a CD wallet thingie... DIG THAT 17-Minute "Red Clay"!!!!! "...all you need ...is justa touch...of mojo hand....." | |

I guess I'll have to run out and get some jewel cases because I had trouble replacing the CD's back in that plastic box. Check me out and add me on:

I was so ticked off about it I sent it back after ordering it. If memory serves me something was cracked, tho it wasn't a cd.
Somebody either tried too hard or not hard enough. This post not for the wimp contingent. All whiny wusses avert your eyes. | |

I heard that Columbia reissued this set on September 14, 2004 with special packaging, dang, didn't even know that. [Edited 11/12/04 19:50pm] Check me out and add me on:

[Edited 11/12/04 19:50pm] I forgot about that...It was re-released in a longbox.Some of the Miles sets were re-released that way also. "...all you need ...is justa touch...of mojo hand....." | |
