Format:Audio CD
The albums speak for themselves - true classics, all of them. This release is fantastic because you get 5 albums for such a low price. If you don't have these CDs yet, now's your chance to get them. However, don't expect much from the packaging. The box is just a slipcase, about the equivalent of the box from a deck of cards. The individual sleeves aren't up to the standard of mini-LP sleeves, the discs are hard to get in and out of the sleeves, their are no inner sleeves, etc. Of course, most of us are going to rip the music to our iPod, and store the discs away in a closts.
As long as you know what to expect, this is a great purchase.

Format:Audio CD
The Albums included on this set are : Crocodiles / Echo and the Bunnymen / Heaven Up Here / Ocean Rain / Porcupine
I thought a track listing would be handy to compare them to ones you may have to se if there are any extra tracks or remastered versions.
From experience I have often found that many of the other sets from different artists are in actual fact the remastered versions with additional tracks or at the very least a mixture of the two.
Still an amazingly cheap set with the neat cardboard sleeves- heck someone has got to love them!
If you spot any mistakes just add a comment and I will rectify it Toot Sweet

This represents excellent value for money if you are not too concerned with packaging, which is flimsy and you don't get the literature you would get with the individual CD's. I adored the Bunnymen in the 80's and have most of their albums on vinyl, the quality of their music is exceptional the guitar, drums and of course Ian's amazing voice. If you've never heard of them try them, I don't think you'll be disappointed.

Boxed-off Bunnymen.
Bought this for the wife - she had a thing about the singer's lips back in the eighties. The presentation is basic, but I actually prefer mini-LP card sleeves to plastic jewel... Read more

Classic Bunnymen
This is the Bunnymen as they should be remembered. Pioneering post punk rockers, a fantastically cool frontman, innovative guitarist & great rhythm section. Read more

One of the most vital collections in years
Why? Because the music on these discs is an almost faultless reminder of the psychedelic years of Merseyside indie music. Read more
