Got the box set last night. First I have to say the 2 Marquee songs are in amazing quality. The other discs have already been discussed so I'll skip that. The box itself is smaller than I expected, but actually I prefer it that way. The book cover has the zipper, I expected it on the outside of the box, but it's better (and safer) inside the box. The pages in the book are nice and glossy, some new ones, overall a great presentation. The 45 is a nice pressing with a 2015 date, so it's not a left over as some of us thought it would be. There's only one stand-up per box, mine has Mick. The poster is okay but unnecessary to me. The construction of everything is great. Overall I'd say it's a great box, a well done comprehensive piece. I believe it's well worth the price.

Hi Father Ted, yes, there's plenty of story telling about how the album/artwork came about. I've only read a few pages so far but I think there's a lot of information I didn't know. Hi Dandelion Powderman, I'm happy to have Mick as the cut-out but part of me wishes it was Keef instead. I wonder how many they made of each. Seems Mick and Keef would be in most boxes. That would mean you got a rarity. What number is yours? Don't have mine here at work, but it's somewhere in the 12,000s.

I think the ones that have Taylor as the cut-out part have got a real rarity.

How do you mean, both? Are there two of them, does he have a double? That would explain something!

"picked up an enormous amount of fans, who thought it was a new record"..

my question is, the 'enormous amount of new, young fans thinking it was a new record' part..
how was that determined..?
a lot of people bought the repackaged re-released Exile, but did they think it was a new album..?

Mick and Dick, both former members of the band.

For those of you who don't have the album yet, you can go to their website and pull down the zip and then wait ten minutes for your computer to load so that you can hear the alternate version of CYHMK... or you can go to their spotify playlist and play it.
