notes

Limited edition deluxe box set compiling repressed versions of the Beggars Banquet' period LPs and a fourth double LP of a previously unreleased live show recorded in London May 10th, 1987; and five CDs of rarities, outtakes, and a collection of 28 songs intended for what was supposed to be the follow-up to '16 Lovers Lane'. The box set also contains a large-format 112-page book of archival photos and extensive historical liner notes from founding member Robert Forster - plus additional pieces from guest essayists, fans & contemporaries. Also included is a 'Liberty Belle And The Black Diamond Express' songbook that was prepared at the time of release by their publisher, but never printed, containing hand-transcribed sheet music of all ten songs from the album. Also includes a card with a unique download code for the box in both MP3 & WAV formats.

The first 400 box sets ordered directly from Domino came with a book from Grant McLennan's personal library, as well as a bookmark certifying it as such.
