Description

Buzzcocks require no introduction. Pivotal to the punk and postpunk DIY movements, the group, led by frontman Pete Shelley and coconspirator Steve Diggle, brought an essential pop sensibility and sartorial style to the late 1970s and early 1980s.Having disbanded in 1981, the band regrouped in 1989 and continue to write, record and perform to this day, despite the saddening and untimely loss of Pete Shelley in 2018. This handsome box set captures the eight albums and numerous singles the band produced with Shelley during a twenty three year period, alongside previously unheard rarities, demos and outtakes.Packed with remarkable music, including excellent revisits of much of their best loved material on A Different Compilation, Sell You Everything showcases a longevity and a hunger rarely seen in a band now into their fortysecond year.bull DELUXE BOX SET COMPILING THE POSTREFORMATION YEARS, SPANNING THREE DECADES.bull 160 TRACKS, INCLUDING MANY NEVER BEFORE ON CD AND 29 PREVIOUSLY UNRELEASED RECORDINGSbull INCLUDES THE ENTIRE 1991 DEMO ALBUM, HOME RECORDINGS FROM STEVE DIGGLES ARCHIVE, DEMOS AND RARE BSIDES AND PROMOTIONAL ONLY TRACKS.bull ALSO INCLUDES A DIFFERENT COMPILATION, FEATURING REWORKED INTERPRETATIONS OF THE CLASSICS EVER FALLEN IN LOVE, WHAT DO I GET, ORGASM ADDICT AND MORE.bull PRODUCED IN ASSOCIATION WITH STEVE DIGGLE AND BUZZCOCKS.bull BOOKLET INCLUDES SLEEVENOTES BY PAT GILBERT MOJO MAGAZINE BASED ON NEW INTERVIEWS WITH STEVE DIGGLE.
