Album notes

Discogs page for these notes (opens in a new tab)

Notes from the original pressing. Later editions may differ.

Put together to celebrate the group's 10th anniversary, this box set has all of Blur's commercially-released UK singles with all the respective B-sides that appeared on the various formats for each (i.e. CD, 7", 12", cassette single). The only exception is the last single, "No Distance Left To Run," which has only one other B-side (the singles for "No Distance Left To Run" were released after the set and they included three additional songs).
Jointly released between Food and EMI Records (UK)
Packaged in a "Case Logic"-style soft case with 22 singles all in cardboard sleeves with the original artwork/design (in the case of singles for which there were multiple formats, the artwork/design used was taken from part 1.) The soft case was original enclosed in a glossy full color sash that encircled it, 2" high. The entire soft case was packaged in a brown cardboard box with a 1"x1.5" white sticker bearing the barcode, catalog numbers, and other information.
An extensive booklet is included with previously unseen and unused artwork designed for the respective single covers. On the inner back panel of the booklet is a stamped number denoting each limited edition's number.
Live Locations:
2-7: Bath Moles
6-7 to 6-9: Glastonbury Festival 1992 (mixed at Matrix Studios)
12-4 to 12-7: Mile End Stadium (17 June 1995) for Radio One
13-5 to 13-8: BBC Radio One (first transmission date: 7 Sept 1995)
17-3: courtesy of Viva TV Niteclub, recorded in Germany
18-2 to 18-7: live at Peel Acres, 8 May 1997
8-2, "Magpie", features words taken from the poem "Poison Tree" by the poet William Blake.
There are a few typos in the printed credits on the individual sleeves: Disc 6 has the song "Es Schmecht" misspelled as "Es Scmecht"; Disc 9 has track 2 listed as "Girls & Boys (7" Mix)" and track 3 as "Girls & Boys (Pet Shop Boys 7" Mix)" when they are "Girls & Boys (Pet Shop Boys 7" Mix)" and "Girls & Boys (Pet Shop Boys 12" Mix)" respectively.
