Synopsis

Album Description
This three disc set is the definitive collection of material by the Oldham five piece whose take on 1960's garage rock brought them eleven UK top 40 singles over a five year period. The first disc includes every single released by the band from 'Keep The Circle Around' (from their 1988 'Planecrash' EP) right through to 'Come Back Tomorrow', an outtake from the 'Devilhopping' sessions. Disc two features a number of rarities, whilst the third - a DVD (NTSC/All Region) - gathers together each promo video, 7 live tracks and band interview. Standard double-sized jewel case housed in a slipcase. Mute. 2003.

"AWESOME PACKAGE HEAVY PAPER SLIP CASE WITH 3 CD JEWEL CASE THAT OPENS LIKE A BOOK 2 CD'S AND A DVD! CD1:COOL AS* IS A GREATEST HITS CD ALL THEIR BEST SONGS. CD2:RARE AS* IS A RARITIES CD WITH TWO GREAT COVERS TAINTED LOVE BY SOFT CELL AND 96 TEARS BY QUESTION MARK AND THE MYSTERIONS. NOW FOR THE DVD WHICH IS WHY I REALLY BOUGHT THIS SET. AFTER LISTENING TO THE 2 CD'S I POPPED THE DVD INTO MY SONY HOME SYSTEM DVD PLAYER AND A MESSAGE "CAN NOT PLAY" CAME UP! BEING IN EUROPEAN PAL/RC-0 FORMAT MAKES THE DVD UNPLAYABLE IN U.S.A. PLAYERS BIG BUMMER! THE TWO CD'S ARE WORTH THE PRICE ALONE BUT THE UNPLAYABLE DVD WAS A DISAPPOINTMENT.
JUST BEFORE BEGINNING TO WRITE THIS REVIEW I DECIDED TO TRY THE DVD IN MY HOME PC DVD PLAYER FOR THE HELL OF IT AND LOW AND BEHOLD IT STARTED TO PLAY PERFECTLY? DOES ANYONE OUT THERE KNOW WHY IT WON'T PLAY IN THE SONY PLAYER BUT PLAYS IN MY PC DVD PLAYER? GREAT MUSIC PACKAGE FOR A REAL CARPETS FAN A MUST HAVE BUT HOPE YOU CAN PLAY THE DVD IN SOME PLAYER THAT YOU MAY OWN."
