>MIXMAG LIVE HISTORY 3 CD3
>Volumes 9,11,13 : Alex Patterson, Mixmaster Morris, Mr C, Sven Vath, Darren
>Emerson, Dave Angel

I bought my copy 2 months ago and am still giving it a spin from time to
time which says it all I guess... On the value/money-tip : it's priced as a
single cd but actually you get three of them. 

The Emerson/Angel and Vath/MrC mixes are more than OK -even containing some
true classics- but suffer from the same problems as other mixcd's, ie :
after some time they become quite boring as you hear them over and over in
the same order of tracks and mixes in between.

The Paterson/MmM cd however is totally different, it comes as a total
soundlandscape instead of a collection of mixed choons. However much of the
Paterson/MmM-mixes are made up of their of their own stuff.

>In short, worth picking up the three CD set? Or are some to be avoided?

Definetely : if you're looking for a mixcd, get this one. It's a real deal
considering the wide variety of music you get for the price of one cd...
