I’m a longtime fan of Fred’s work, especially the Portlandia series. Fred and I have made music together in the past - with my band, with Ian Rubbish, Late Night with Seth Meyers, and an occasional birthday party. So, it was a thrill for me to “unbox” the various configurations, geek out on the packaging, and share a handful of fun stories.

Bob's music has been the foundation of my growth over the years. Both the good times and bad, you can never go wrong with a musician and talent like this.

Same. I remember the first time I heard "Moving Trucks" at a very difficult point in my life and "Today I can open up the window; today is the day I can fly" still tears me up when I hear it as I scream along

@@todd1469 A limited edition initial run of Copper Blue CD’s were released in copper metal sleeves with each of the 2,500 copies containing a one-of-a-kind Polaroid photo taken by one of the three band members and stamped on the back with "Sugar Copper Blue Summer '92." I still have the Polaroid from my CD purchase. Unfortunately I sold the disc & case decades ago. Kept the polaroid though.

Man, that is pure gold in those boxes. I bought copper blue and workbook in '92 (same year my daughter was born). Both CDs bring back special memories when I listen to them. Aside from their political views, I have to say I love these two. Both so talented and seem like down to earth guys. I would love to invite them to enjoy some Texas BBQ, Texas beer, and Texas wine at my house in Dallas. It would be an honor... but no talk about politics LMFAO.

How about Grohl on drums for a show? He’d have to give the feeling and quiet parts of Anytime Between, Explode and Makeup & The Slim from your Live CDs as well as blasting through the fast ones but talk about an idea!! Looking forward to your solo electric show in Bristol. I am still enjoying exploring your back catalogue of the CDs that I have already bought but the reimagined covers means I will get this in the future despite doubling up on some. Looks lovely.

I own almost every album already (I have ATP only digitally) but I would have bought the CD box anyway if it had contained more unreleased stuff, demos, etc. There is barely any unreleased stuff among the 24 CDs. I don't understand why Bob won't open the vault even a little bit. (The Workbook demos that are out there are fantastic.)
