Both teaser videos went online at 17.00 (CET). So I think we have to wait a few more hours.

Orders now up on the official store

Oppor '85, Paninaro, Seriously, London, Integral, All over the world, Axis, Invisible, On social media and Burning Heather are all on the 2nd DVD... so they are sort of included.

Now cleaning the drink I was drinking off the table

£55 for a triple cassette!

Once again, I see that the designer still hasn't played around with Photoshop filters. Unfortunately, the design is getting worse and worse. The covers of Behaviour, Discography, Bilingual, Release were much more interesting and beautiful.

Not on the Amazon listing:
Disc: 5
1 Opportunities (Let's Make Lots Of Money)
2 Paninaro
3 Domino Dancing (Extended)
4 So Hard (12' Version)
5 How Can You Expect To Be Taken Seriously
6 Go West (Extended Version)

and that's it...

Can‘t finalize my order at the official shop. Anyone with the same problem?

£45 with no new tracks or extras is disappointing. This also shelves any kind of singles box set for a few years. I like the blurry Actually T-shirt though.

Blu-Ray's confirmed as..

i'm game.

i like having most of the stuff in one place.

i don't really need it on bluray, but ok, if thats what it is.

vinyl, i will look into much later on, don't need colored vinyl.

the cassette option is fun, but again, later just for collecting.


later

Blu-ray content looks good, but I don’t have Blu-ray.

That split in the “A” on the main cover/sleeve erks me big time… can’t see how any designer would be happy with that.

Art direction looks like a poor man’s copy of Peter Saville’s “waste paintings”.

Obviously, this compilation isn’t for “us”, but would be good if it was something well thought through and well designed that we could still be proud of to recommend to others. I don’t think it passes that test.

Hang on… there’s a lenticular poster of the main sleeve… perhaps the original design was for the box set cover to be a lenticular, in which case it makes more sense… that would have been great, the design swapping between the inner and outer images as you moved it, or walked past it in a shop… that would be a great design in that context.
