Description

All beginnings start with a name. And so, in October 1989, Simon Fowler, Steve Cradock, Damon Minchella and Oscar Harrison sat down together, chose their three favourite words, arranged them in a satisfactory order and became Ocean Colour Scene. Thirtyfive years on, and Ocean Colour Scene are still together making music and regularly selling out huge concert halls across the country. They have the support of an extraordinarily dedicated and loyal fan base who cherish their music and hold close to their hearts a lifetime of memories supporting the group. This latest boxset continues Demon Records ongoing celebration of one of Britains finest bands and for this edition we present a treasure trove of lesserknown Ocean Colour Scene classics.Within this 4LP set youll find four discs filled to the brim with all the Bsides and rarities release by OCS over the course of their career thus far.
