Best Box Sets?


I'm looking to buy some new music and thought box sets would be a nice place to start. I listen to all kinds of music so I'm looking for recommendations on well done box sets for various artists, musical genres, and periods. Preferably ones that have been remastered or come from the original master tapes.

For instance, I was at Best Buy today and was going to buy a Motown boxset, Martin Scorsecse presents "The Blues" and Rolling Stones Box Sets but then I figured let me ask around first.

Thanks,

Depends upon your taste in music and how detailed you want to get.

I've had some box sets and then gotten rid of them because I ended up buying all of the individual releases. The only one that I haven't been tempted to replace is also the most expensive and that is Pink Floyd's Shine On Box set. Since everything in it is "remastered" I had no desire to pursue newer copies as they were released.
It does depends on your taste. I enjoy Johnny Cash "Unearth", Ameican Roots Music from the PBS series, The Bands "The Last Waltz". But thats my taste, I enjoy Americana style music.
