Oh By the Way, Just Riding the Gravy Train!

Pink Floyd (official homepage, wikipedia entry) is my all-time favorite rock band. But I was quite disappointed to learn a few weeks ago that they are issuing yet another box set. This one is called "Oh By The Way", a lame but seemingly appropriate name for a box set that is nothing but a re-release of 14 major albums. While the box material itself looks interesting, there is no way I'm buying this for a huge chunk of money, since being a pretty big fan I naturally already have all of their CDs already.

Why can't they fix up some concert recordings from the 1970s, and put those out in a boxed set? That would be awesome, fans would drool over it, and they'd likely sell far more. At the very least, they wouldn't be open to the criticism that they are, uh... how shall I say it... "riding the gravy train"!
