Anyone plunked down their hard earned cash for either of the new Valli box sets?  There is an 18 cd Frankie Valli and the Four Seasons box as well as an 8 cd solo box set.  I have all of the material already on the old curb cds as well as the old Rhino Box set and the newer Jersey Beat box set so there is now new material here.  I love Valli and am pretty much a completist so I will probably go ahead with this at some point (they are both pretty cheap too) but just wondering if anyone has compared and can let me know if the sound quality and mastering are an upgrade or not.  I checked with the usually knowledgable nerds or at the Hoffman forum but have received no reply.  Thought I'd see if anyone here had the scoop...Thanks in advance
