Sparks: New Music For Amnesiacs: The Ultimate Collection (Lil Beethoven)
Despite their longevity, brothers Ron and Russell Mael, who started Sparks in the 1970s, have produced some of their best work in the 21st century, winning over a fresh generation of fans in the process. This four-disc best of collection, self-released on their own Lil Beethoven label, is a great place to sample their entire career. Along with the music, you get a 64 page hardback book, replica tickets, contact sheets featuring outtakes from the Big Beat photo session shot by Richard Avedon, a car window sticker, and more. This box set is big enough for Sparks fans both casual and devoted.
