The shipping to Canada is more than the cost of the CD

Have had this set since it was released in 2017. I do like the mini-LP CD format and the covers on these have the UK Tamla Motown logo as do the CDs. Incredible value at the time at around £10 for the set [[$12.38). Of course, the music is great too. Best of all, they also did sets for the Jackson 5, Motown Chartbusters and The Stylistics [[these were the sets that most interested me). I wish they had carried on and done many more Motown sets.

You can see them in my collections here:

Of course there had been similar sets previously - there seemed to be a trend for 5 album sets from many different labels and artists. Two of the Universal Music ones I bought were by The Temptations and also Marvin Gaye - see here:

There is a brand new copy of this for sale on Discogs for roughly half the price quoted above. Not sure about the shipping costs.

The Temptations box set is available cheaper than Tower on Amazon USA.
