ALL OF THIS
THE LIVE RARITIES
Label - EMI UK
Catalogue number 4996782
RELEASE DATE 12TH APRIL 1999
Our old friends at EMI London had a root about at the back of the cupboard and have come up with a collection of live tracks that span the period 1985 to 1991. All of the songs have been released previously as b-sides, extra tracks or the limited edition "bootlegged" bootleg 12"s (released with the early EMI singles) but many of them have not been on CD before.
The album comes packaged in special box and all the tracks have been re-mastered by Peter Men at Abbey Road. We think it sounds great. Good job Peter!

As stated above there is nothing on this album that has not been previously available - however all of the reproductions here are vast improvements on their original releases and stand the test of time very well.
