I apologize if this has been posted already, but I searched and couldn't find it.

Looks like 4 LPs, with 2 of the LPs having bonus tracks and just 2 CDs, perhaps no bonus tracks.

This album has been done to death with reissues and I don't even like the album, but for those who are curious, here it is again...

Interesting. In 2011 there was a release with 4 CDs and 2 LPs and a DVD. The CDs included an extended 2-CD version of the original album and 2 CDs of their "In Concert" release. This sounds like it might be an LP release of the extended 2 CD version along with (maybe) the existing extended CD.

This is one of my favorite albums of all time. I'll need more details before I decide anything.

This is my favorite album of all time, but I also will wait to see what's offered.

I've seen the track list. I don't know if anything on this on hasn't been out before. It's a pretty pointless re-release.

I don't own it, so maybe it isn't pointless. I may drop some cash for it depending on the track list.

I'm hoping that the 60th anniversary edition will have "Layla" take 1 as well as many other take 1s on it.

You'll have to wait for the 70th anniversary edition for that. :shock:

Pre-order details are now in the first post. There are two seperate configurations -- a 2CD set and a 4LP vinyl set. The vinyl version contains one extra track, "High", which will not be included on the 2CD set. As Robin noted, "High" has already appeared on CD as part of Life In 12 Bars:

I'd like to know if the two Spector produced tracks will be the original mixes that were released as a 45 or the remixes that began appearing with the Crossroads box.
