Out This Week / on 17 May 2019

Saint Etienne have release a 25th anniversary edition box set of their 1994 album Tiger Bay. Sadly, the signed copies available via the SDE shop have sold out. The band play the whole album in full, with an orchestra, at The Barbican next week.

Just For A Moment: Music 1973-1997 is a forthcoming six-CD box set that focuses on the solo career of Faces/Small Faces legend Ronnie Lane.

The 2CD set of Paul McCartney‘s Egypt Station ‘Explorer’s Edition’ is already out (still available via the SDE shop) but this week the elusive coloured vinyl 3LP edition should ship. We sold out of our allocation at SDE but hoping to get some more!

Universal Music release a new Traffic vinyl box set, The Studio Albums 1967–1974. It features all six studio albums recorded for the label remastered from the original tapes and presented in their original and highly collectible ‘first’ Island pressing form (gatefold sleeves, pink eye labels etc).

The David Bowie 40th anniversary picture discs keep swinging. This has the 2017 Tony Visconti mix on the A-side and rare Ryko-era bonus track ‘I Pray, Ole’ on the flipside.

The National will release their eighth studio album, I Am Easy To Find this week. The coloured 3LP is sold out but the ‘indies-only’ 2LP clear vinyl is still available via the SDE shop (we have some CDs too).

The David Bowie Clareville Grove Demos seven-inch vinyl box set contains home demos recorded in 1969. It contains three seven-inch singles.
