Didn’t know that song, thanks!

Push is so great.

Man, West End Girl is brutal, huh.

I hated myself for sending it back!

I learned my lesson though and years later got a dupe order and sent to a friend who I knew would like it. 😄

I don’t think I cued in until just now that it’s numbered. 😄 002413

I sent it back because I'm too honest. 😄

Ugh, I'm so sorry. It's so incredibly well done.

I didn't even really think about it being scarce, I ordered it from Amazon way back when. You'll hate this story, but the first one got lost so I wrote in & told them & they shipped another one. I got that one, then the lost one showed up.

Speaking of the music…

Fave tracks on the album: I Wanna Be Adored and…gosh, the whole thing. 😄

Fave tracks not on the album: Fools Gold, Guernica, Standing Here

The remaster is one of the best ever. The original audio was washed out, the bass & drums really hit here. tidal.com/album/305264...

This box kickstarted me into collecting vinyl again, and remains a prized item in my collection. Beautifully packaged, Squire's Pollock-inspired art is all over the thing, including 6 art prints (which I just realized I should frame & hang on my walls!).

And the music…thanks for the music, Mani. ❤️

3 vinyl records (the album, b-sides, & singles), 3 CDs (the album, the singles & b-sides, lost demos), a USB shaped like a lemon slice (digital copies of the songs, the videos, wallpapers, ringtones, and 5 other backwards tracks), and a DVD with the Blackpool concert & 6 promo videos. 😅

When I heard of Mani's death today, I literally skipped to the end of my #vinyl to play this music. I have a lot of my box sets & special editions in a separate container, and this box holds the very last position, partly by alphabet, partly because it's the biggest box in the collection!
