The 2013 mini-box set
Original Album Classics does not contain every one of
Dave Edmunds' great albums -- there is no
Get It, no
Tracks on Wax 4, no
Repeat When Necessary (nothing from
Swan Song, in other words) -- but it does offer good and great records from throughout his career.
Subtle as a Flying Mallet,
D.E. 7th,
I Hear You Rockin' Live,
Information, and
Riff Raff are all here, and while the latter two are a little hidebound to their
Jeff Lynne production, they're enjoyable, while the first two range from great to very good. All and all, at this price it's a steal.
