I just don't get it am I missing something here as to why this is described as a quick buck release ? The Pot Luck album is a pretty decent album right ? For an outtake collector like myself who does not have these recordings its a chance to get them right ? It's a 2 disk set right ? . Do we know if the sound quality is bad or another reason not to purchase, has it just been thrown together without any care ? I would appreciate any feedback please as I am looking at buying this one to sit alongside my FTD version . Thanks in advance.

I have a good collection of out-takes from this era on various older releases (FTD, Memory, and imports), so I may well have most of what's on this album, BUT...as with other entries in this series, it's very thoughtfully and attractively put together, it does not cost THAT much (certainly less than the usual 2-cd "import"), and it's nice to have all this material in one place: the complete mono and stereo albums, the movie versions, alternate takes, and versions without backing vocals. I've been playing it a lot since it came out, and I think it's well worth it for anyone who is a fan of the classic POT LUCK album. For me, this is a lot LESS of a "quick buck" release than those "import" packages where already released material (sometimes released by FTD!) is paired with a "book" of pictures lifted from various sources.
