Pre-ordered this the second the announced it on Twitter. This is more affordable than the Japanese boxset 🤣

Looks nice but why 7”s missing two thirds of the b-sides? 🙃

For anyone who doesn't have the original CD box, the box itself is a hard plastic with a hinge top on it. Very high quality. From the looks of it this is the same, which is great.
The shipping on this is stupid though.

A few extra inches of plastic would add an increment of extra cost yes, but they’d reflect that in the price for sure. It would still sell out. I think it is stupid that they’ve left some of the best b-sides off this box set. Lazy. We should be getting The Aeroplane Flies High style box sets at this point in their career, with more, not less, content. en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Aeroplane_Flies_HighBut they consistently sell out rehashes and colour variants so why try harder huh? 🧌

I think if you're releasing a collectors box of singles then it's natural for it to be the 7" versions – that's the classic single format for pop/rock bands.

Thanks for posting this as I didn't know about it. I'm going to order one as those vinyls look great. I have both the cd boxed set of this album and the (What's The Story) Morning Glory? one. I wonder if they'll do a vinyl version of the latter album next year for the albums 30 years.

Oasis are a band renowned for their b-sides. This reissue is emulating the previous CD box set which included all the b-sides. So personally I think it is stupid to leave off most of the b-sides. Horses for courses though. If people are happy to smash £80 £62 on 8 songs they already own, all power to them. 🐎

Only three tracks on the 12 inch singles Better to miss one track than two huh? And they could’ve squeezed the fourth tracks on if they wanted to give more value for money. 🐄
