The Warner Recordings (1985-1994) (5LP)

The 5LP set sounds fantastic — the 1985-1994 era material really benefits from a proper pressing, and having all four albums plus extras in one box is great value. The gatefold packaging held up fine in shipping too.

Didn't expect the vinyl to be this quiet between tracks on a 5LP set. Having all the solo Warner years in one place means I finally retired my mismatched copies, and the 1985-1994 span holds together better than I remembered.

The five records arrived flat and quiet, no warping at all, and the gatefold holds them snugly. Hearing the 1985 stuff on wax instead of a compressed stream is a whole different experience, the low end really opens up.
