Sounds like good value. Mind you, I've got most of the tracks on it, although the 'Extravaganza' tracks would be a nice addition. I had the LP but have nothing to play it on, so I may just buy this.

A pity they didn't spend a little more than a quid on the cover. Just dreadful. Not a bad introductory compilation, mind.... |

Angel Air release some great stuff generally , but they could make more effort with sleeve art. When I spoke to Mutter a few weeks ago, he said Andy Davis was choosing the tracks and there were some different live versions of things - I am bit disappointed that Angel Air have not given a bit more information in their listing about that. Not sure if it comes with a booklet or not either. |

If I was a member of a 'heritage' band and someone put out a compilation or box set of my earlier material, I'd want it to be Cherry Red (or one of their subsidiary labels). The contrast between their attempts at quality control and those of some of the others is breath-taking. |

Not sure if it comes with a booklet or not either. I don't have the set but I suspect that any live tracks come from the two live albums that Angel Air has the rights too, The Forbidden City and The Final Bow. In particular I notice that all of the A Victory For Common Sense tracks come from the latter as Angel Air does not have the rights to the final studio album. |

Not sure if it comes with a booklet or not either. Not sure why I can't handle quotes lately!  Anyway, I have tidied this up. I don't have the set but I suspect that any live tracks come from the two live albums that Angel Air has the rights too, The Forbidden City and The Final Bow. In particular I notice that all of the A Victory For Common Sense tracks come from the latter as Angel Air does not have the rights to the final studio album. Since posting this yesterday I have discovered that all of the live tracks are from The Final Bow. A bit of a surprise. It is an excellent set but very much a makeshift line up of the band. The Forbidden City is closer to the classic line up. |
