Merbow releases 50 CD retrospective:

Merzbox, as it's called, is a 50- (that's five-oh) CD retrospective encased in latex rubber that retails for $500 or more and includes a CD-ROM, T-shirt, stickers, circular postcards and a commemorative coin dubbed a Merzdallion. By the way: the CDs aren't numbered. To know what you're hearing, you have to match the psychedelic designs on the discs against partial reproductions in the accompanying 132-page hardcover book. It doesn't get any more Emerson, Lake and Palmer than this.

This is insane, of course. And I'd love to own it.
