I checked out the 3-LP set -- and though I would truly prefer vinyl, I made the decision to opt for the CD set. Yes, the vinyl is limited to 3000 and is numbered, but... there are only a total of 42 tracks, whereas the CD set has a total of 60 tracks -- and costs about $10 less. There are instances in the past where I have purchased the vinyl and the CD as well, just for the additional tracks, but this _Gene Clark Collected_ set is simply too expensive to purchase both.
