Expecting to Fly: 25th Anniversary (Blue) (Box)
Bluetones
LP
Triple blue colored vinyl LP pressing. Hailing from Heston in West London, The Bluetones arrived on the scene in 1995 with their debut single "Are You Blue Or Are You Blind?". They followed this up with "Bluetonic" and then "Slight Return", which reached # 2 on the UK singles chart. The debut album Expecting To Fly was released in February 1996, and went straight to # 1. This box set contains the original 1996 album, a 12 track LP of non-album A- and B-sides, as well as the collection of pre-fame demos The Early Garage Years. The box also contains the 12 x 12 booklet from the original limited edition sleeve, as well as a note by 6Music DJ Steve Lamacq.
