Some of the extras sound great, especially the cards and The Magicians Birthday Lp, but for me - it would cost over 400 Canadian $ , and would be (presumably) nothing (or not much) previous unheard tracks. A bit hard to justify here.

It does say "19 CDs including all the studio albums" and "Includes every
studio album" but I guess they could have explained it a bit better.
The "members choices" are all Heep songs but I don't know anything more.
