"First, good luck assembling this collection of tracks on your own. I'm sure there are musicians who forgot they recorded these tracks :-)
Unlike some other series where after about 4 discs, the quality heads seriously south, these are very consistent up to the very end.
And yes, there is actually a difference between the first 10 and this set. The first ten do contain more heavy green dripping fuzztone psychadelia and these tend to veer towards more pop psychadelia though we're not exactly talking about Ron Dante ... perhaps it's just the sound quality is a bit better, they simply might be more seasoned musicians or perhaps they were taking the lead of where their more success brethern were taking, I'm not sure. I was not alive then and I'm no music historian. All I judge on is quality and the genre - these sets are obviously a big commitment financially and not for everyone but if you're a serious or avid collector of music, this is a great set with tracks you will have to search years to find again ... if you love psych of any kind - you absolutely need this set."
Things come better 2nd time around

"Rubble 11-20 in my opinion is alot improved over 1-10 If you like the soft Psych(like me)this collection is focused more on that. Some great tracks are from Felius Andromeda, and The Attack, and many others. I'd say save the extra 40 bucks and get this set if you like the "14 Hour Technicolor Dream" type stuff this collection is better suited for you."
Excellent sound quality and a great colletion of psych.
