Editorial Reviews
This great box set includes five original albums recorded between 1969 and 1974 by the great British Prog group Argent, created by Rod Argent after the demise of the Zombies, one of the most important and talented representatives of British scene. With masterpiece "Argent" with excellent guitar playing, "Ring Of Hands" with a more rock mood, "All Together Now", "In Deep" and "Nexus". The albums have been digitally remastered and packaged in album replicas (mini-sleeves), housed in a cardboard box. This is an essential!

For the completist one can get the version of All Together Now with 3 additional single versions (one of which is on the Argent singles collection) independently in conjunction with this set.
Each disc is contained in a cardboard sleeve 'replica' of the original album cover. I say 'replica' in quotes because the catalog number is new and the beautiful gatefold sleeves of the albums are not included so some artwork and interior copy is lost. I presume these interiors are available on the single disc CD reissues . . . ? Then the sleeves are inside one larger heavy-duty cardboard box with the tracks of all 5 CDs listed on the back.
If you aren't familiar with Argent, the first album especially sounds like The Zombies, and smokes in my opinion. A masterpiece of tasteful melancholy soft rock including Liar, which Three Dog Night would cover. The second gets a little more free formish and the band gradually moves more towards prog - though it can't decide whether to get more jazzy or heavy at times. Heavier choices would be their hit Hold Your Head Up and the song Kiss would make famous, God Gave Rock 'n' Roll To You. A highly recommended set.
Speaking of bands without a comprehensive box set, Argent would benefit from one. This set will have to do in the meantime.
Strangely enough the cover features a photo of the five piece which doesn’t appear on any of these albums; John Verity and the late John Grimaldi appeared on the band’s last two studio albums Not included here. This photo is from around the time of their concept album “Circus”.
The mastering is quite good here and the sources all appear to be low generations tapes nicely transfer but sadly without any bonus tracks.
Altogether this is a nice set.
