    Hi Susanne, Just wanted to let you know that the person hosting the bennettfan website has been non responsive to questions about ordering Tony’s cd’s of Rarities and unusual items. Very sad indeed.

      Hi Ric. I don’t know about that other site, sorry.

      The 2 Rarities, Outtakes and Other Delights volumes have never been available for purchase except as part of the 2011 Complete Collection, which I bought when it first came out. The booklet that comes with it is very nice. The set is expensive, though. Barnes & Nobel usually has the best prices. They can be streamed on most platforms, such as Spotify, Apple Music, etc.

        Hi Suzanne,
        The site hosted by thebennettfan indicated that Rarities Vol. 3-7 is now available. I have the box set which includes Vol. 1 & 2. Any idea as to how we can acquire the Vols. 3-7? I have tried to reach the host mentioned above without the courtesy of a reply.

          Hi Ric,

          There isn’t an official release of Rarities beyond vol. 2. That said, someone collected a number of songs that hadn’t been released (I don’t know who that person is) and named them that. I have volumes 3-6 of that collection and am happy to make them available to you via Dropbox, if you’re interested.
