Not yet, but there's still time....
I was reading the notes on this and saw the reference to the Grass Roots set they did a few years back and clicked thru to check it out... It looked good so I added it to my cart - then I noticed at the bottom of the page the Rhino 2cd set anthology that I have as well listed for sale...
What shocked me was the price - only listed the first CD not the whole set and there was a used one for $969.00 and a new one from $902.00! Now I know that doesn't mean anyone will pay that much for it, but still the fact that two sellers would list it for that much was incredible...
The new seller is Meag-Movie-Deals, the used seller is NBSCA.

An excellent comp. Some of these cuts are alternate takes as well. I just wish they had used the original single edit of Monster and not replaced it with the full album version. Also great to have John's solo singles in there. But I also gotta have stereo versions too, ha.
Real Gone is a great label. They need to crank out more of these A's + B's CDs, the sky's the limit. (Confidentially, I asked them to reprint the Blood, Sweat & Tears "Complete Columbia Singles" 2CD, and they said "Working on that!", but don't tell nobody just yet, ha...)

That Steppenwolf set is fantastic, nice to see that others will get a chance on this. Real Gone was formed by the person who fronted Collectors' Choice, is that correct?

From the Real Gone website:
"In 1993, two Ohio boys, Gordon Anderson and Gabby Castellana, both separately started businesses—Collectors' Choice Music and Hep Cat Records & Distribution--that were to become two of the most important outlets for buyers and sellers of vintage music recordings. Now, 18 years later, they have joined forces to launch Real Gone Music, a reissue label dedicated to serving both the collector community and the casual music fan with a robust release schedule combining big-name artists with esoteric cult favorites."

None....yet
Some of the stuff on this set apparently came from vinyl, no tapes available I assume, Anyone know how many/which? Won’t stop me from buying it, just curious

I bought this the first time around in 2015. Just scanned the booklet with the set and while there is a whole lot of information about the music, there is nothing indicating vinyl usage, just what's mono and stereo.
