A couple of years ago NT talked about the idea of releasing a box set of their singles a la Depeche Mode et al (bit of French and Latin there).

Do people think this is a good idea and if so, how should they proceed?

For me I would say yes - great idea. Maybe each disk could gather up all the obscure remixes of the time, as is usually the case. Each single could be in a small vinyl - imitation 5" cardboard sleeve.

How many volumes? How many singles have they had? 36? Maybe divide it by 3 and have 12 to a box!

(God, the things you do waiting for this new album to come out!)

I have a feeling this was discussed in another thread recently.

It was discussed about three years ago with extensive postings of tracklistings featuring no shortage of claims regarding previously unreleased remixes.
