ORIGINAL OFFER NOTE: Perhaps the most overlooked supergroup of the seventies. Their self-titled album is regarded by many as one of the most intense pieces of prog/metal ever recorded. Sufficiently Breathless was more acoustic but also an excellent if underrated album. This 2CD boot covers 1971-1977 and if you're into Captain Beyond and haven't heard this you're in for a treat. Although the recording is inconsistent it's still very listenable and definitely a much better overall recording than the Texas 1973 "It's Our Life". There are very few boots by these guys and this is the best I've come across.

One of my favorite groups. And everybody is right. There's just not many CB boots out there. That's what makes this so good. Many thanks for finding it Dave.

Hey Dave, thanks for this! Very appreciated! But one question:
The back cover shows a total of 31 tracks on the Completer CDs. Are these 18 all that was shared or are you planning to put up the rest here in the (near) future?
