They might be blaming the poor sales of the Dead set on revealing the content before release.
Yes! VMP confirmed that the Herbie Hancock Boxset will be released for sale before Summer Ends! On Monday, they confirmed that Summer ended in 8 days and that the Herbie Hancock Boxset will be released for sale within those 8 days!Is the announcement of the boxset the thing that they are set to announce before the end of summer?🌧
Or is there an idea that it is something else?
I remember someone dropped a Twitter link where VMP said that summer ended in 8 days and something people had been waiting for would be announced....or is there a popular theory I'm not tracking?

Oh gosh! Don’t even remind me of that! I don’t even know if VMP sold 1000+ units of the Grateful Dead Anthology Boxset...They might be blaming the poor sales of the Dead set on revealing the content before release.
I use too much emojis! Time for me to cut down on them!Oh, okay. I'm actually not interested in the boxset; I was just making sure it was something else that I wanted and wasn't tracking (I don't use social media so I rely on y'all)
There boxsets are too pricey to me for what you get; plus, I only casually like Herbie (Headhunters is enough for me)
(Also....get your emoji game up, ya slippin')

VMP’s Boxsets are too pricey for me as well! Last Boxset I purchased from them was the Stax Boxset as I’m a massive Stax fan! But I’m an even bigger fan of Herbie Hancock and will be purchasing this Boxset regardless because it’s all audiophile pressings from an artist I love! ♥

My guess is at least $400, maybe $450.This won't be cheap and a bit annoying if you're not a member but already bought 3 of their previous sets if there's no discount for that.

I gotta imagine that’ll be in there, but why? If I have at least two of the albums, it’s going to be VERY hard to justify this.Hmm... Their spotify link shows Headhunters. I already have that one. I hope they let us know what is in the box.
This might be a similar situation to GD. It's gunna be for people who literally have zero Hancock albums.I gotta imagine that’ll be in there, but why? If I have at least two of the albums, it’s going to be VERY hard to justify this.

Yeah I've got six with him as lead and all but one are AAA so I'm likely out.Yeah, I have about nine with Herbie as the lead and several more with him as a band member. I expect this box will include some that I already have. Maybe this anthology isn't for me. We'll see.
This is the funny thing about these anthology's, they sound fantastic to people that are big fans but then the likelihood is that they already own a lot of them. Im a massive Herbie fan (seeing him live was one of the best gigs of last year for me) and have held off on getting some of his stuff since this was announced, but even if there is 1 in there which I already own it will drive the 'price' of the others up to a point where its too much for me (I think that makes sense?)This might be a similar situation to GD.

I’ll probably just check out some of the Speakers Corner issues, they seem to have good reviews around here.Yeah I've got six with him as lead and all but one are AAA so I'm likely out.
Yeah, this is what I'm anticipating - Head Hunters, Empyrean Isles, and Maiden Voyage will all be in it. Probably River: The Joni Letters too.This might be a similar situation to GD. It's gunna be for people who literally have zero Hancock albums.
SC Crossings is INSANE. So well done.I’ll probably just check out some of the Speakers Corner issues, they seem to have good reviews around here.
