* Many thanks to General Confusion for submitting these home made mixes to Vibes, and the work involved in compiling them and making the covers. I took a listen during last week, am sure you will all enjoy this one as much as volume one. Will listen to volume 3 before posting it next Monday. *
* These comps are in Variable Bit Rate just so you know. *
* Enjoy, Reb 😎 Link 👇 *
* I am sure you know what is contained in these compilations and the mix of stuff by now *

* So today I will share Box 30, wow!! So I thought it would make sense to make a post with all the links for Box Of Vibes since we started, then if you have just discovered this home made compilation series, to can collect them all from the one place. If I discover any inactive links, I will make a new link for ya. And any you might have missed, all on the one post. So might make the same post once we reach Box 60, of 31 to 60. *
* Well we started posting these with the first three Boxes on 30th September 2025, and for all the links still to be active, it shows me, your going back to collect the Boxes you missed, or you have just discovered Vibes and Box Of Vibes comps and are collecting the series. This shows us that you like them and the series is well worth continuing with, we made well over 40 to start with I think, so we will need to think about making some more.
I still think I will make a special Box for 50, with tracks suggested by you the Vibes visitors. Once Box 40 is posted I will make a post for you to add your suggested tracks (2 or 3 tracks at the most) on to or you can email your tracks. If there are a lot, I'll make a double version. So once Box 47 is posted please don't send anymore suggestions, as I will be busy compiling Box 50 (The Special Edition), please don't send me the tracks I will source them, if I have any problem finding any then I will ask you to email me the track in real 320. Please submit your tacks by artist, track title, and the album or single it's taken from, as some songs have many versions will make it easier to track down the tracks!! *
* Many thanks to Andy & Concha for their support on this project. *

* As of yesterday, I have decided to cut my daily posts to one or two per day, and if the number of comments increases then so will my number of daily posts. If the takers don't start thanking the uploaders here after downloading. Then Vibes will close, we make the effort to make sure all our download are in true 320 or 256 or what bit rate they are in, we say on the posts what each download comes as and if there is one track at a lower bit rate then we tell you, this and the tagging work takes time, I posted BBC sessions by Au Pairs the other day in 320 but one track was only 256, I spent the whole morning trying to source a 320 replacement for 256 track, without luck. But this takes time and you can't spend 3 seconds for a quick thank you in response. Therefore I am not going to waste my time in the future for people who can't and are not prepared to do the right thing and say thank you. I posted a Siouxsie Sioux compilation and to date 40+ downloads, with 7 comments, one is my link, 3 thanks (2 from Vibe team members) and my 3 replies, it simply is not good enough!! So now it's up to you the takers, either comment or the site goes!! *
* In fact I won't be making a post here, until Monday now, when I share two home made comps, Box Of Vibes 30 and the second volume in the new series Jungle with a ReggaeRagga Edge. So you have time to make up your minds, if you want us to stay or go and start to comment. If comment are not forth coming I will delete all the links for my posts as well and then we will close. I don't need to blog, all it does lately is take up my time. *
* The other option for me could be I stop posting, only posting the home made comps, and let Andy and Concha continue posting as they wish. If they want to continue, but right now, I have had enough. I like sharing music, but a little bit of respect for the time spent posting, sourcing and tagging tracks, wouldn't go a miss. At the moment I am busy trying to re-arrange my music collection, cleaning out stuff I don't require, so I have enough to fill my time, away from Vibes. *
* Will think about this over the next few days *
Reb
* OK here is the future of Vibes, the site will continue, because of the support and the increase in comments over the last few days.
However for now I will still only be making one or two posts per day, if you want more posts from me then continue to comment, if the number of comments increases then I will in turn increase the number of posts per day I make.
I enjoy posting and sharing my collection with you all, but for all the work, the whole Vibes team makes to post music for you, the least you can do is say thank you.
Also we won't and don't make re up's of posts anymore here on Vibes, there was a comment here asking yesterday, it states the no re-up of links at the cross bar at the top and on the right. Regular commentors can ask for a re up which if they provide an email address we will email them a link, it won't be added to the post. Regular commentors can also request an album, you just have to add a comments asking, these will be shared for all to take on the site, as with the Sugababes posts the other week for Peter P, but many of you also took copies. Oh by the way regular commentor means someone, who has made comments over the course of a few months, not someone who adds 5 comments on one day and then asks for a re-up.
I would like to thank the team Andy, Concha and myself (i guess) for their support and posts of interesting music.
Also if you take music from any blog on the net, then please take the time to say thanks, it really goes a long way. So many great blogs have gone, sometimes they go inactive for a while and then continue again. But many close for good and if you want blogs to continue and new ones start up then please support the bloggers by taking the time to thank.

The next 15 tracks represent the core of the Yardbirds' output during Beck's tenure, which lasted from March of 1965 through the summer of 1966 -- anything here could justify a place on a Yardbirds best-of set; the makers have rounded this disc out with four live cuts by the band from the BBC archives, including Beck's extraordinary homage to Elmore James' guitar playing on "The Sun Is Shining" and the unheralded group original "Love Me Like I Love You", and finish the platter with Beck's first three solo single sides, two of which, "Hi Ho Silver Lining" and "Tally Man," comprise the guitarist's brief, achingly beautiful virtuoso digression into trippy psychedelic pop, before he broke through to the more fertile field of what came to be known as heavy metal. Disc two is all of that, made up of the core of his output with the Jeff Beck Group and Beck Bogert & Appice, the latter filled out with a pair of previously unissued tracks: a live version of "Blues Deluxe/BBA Boogie" and "Jizz Whizz."
Disc three skips across Beck's instrumental sides off of Blow by Blow, Wired, and There and Back and his tour with the Jan Hammer Group from the later 1970s, and wraps up with ten songs from Flash and Jeff Beck's Guitar Shop, sandwiching some key odd singles and Beck's contributions to the soundtracks of the movies Twins and Porky's Revenge. There are flaws in this set, to be sure; originally conceived as a four-disc retrospective, it was reduced to three, over Beck's wishes that some proposed cuts be omitted and Sony Music's timidity over the sales prospect of the four-CD set. But it is a good package within those boundaries, with fairly thorough annotation accompanied by great photos and a Pete Frame family tree, and, above all, excellent tape research -- not only were the right masters (i.e., the mono masters) used on "Hot House of Omagarashid" and "Lost Woman," but this is also the only CD package to combine the Yardbirds' 1965 catalog material with their 1966 tracks (owned by separate parties who will not get together). The mastering of it all is so clean that it put most of the older versions of this material to shame at the time. (AllMusic)
