Roxette / The RoxBox repackage

Roxette‘s The Roxbox multi-disc set is available again next month in a compact repackaged set.

Originally issued in 2006 (to celebrate 20 years) across six-discs this new edition loses the two DVDs and concentrates on just the four CDs of audio. The track listing is similar but not the same as the first issue, with this updated Roxbox adding tracks from 2011’s Charm School and 2012’s Travelling (aka Tourism 2) and thus tying in with what is now a 30th anniversary!

Like previous Rhino repackages this will come as a 4CD ‘fat box’ with most probably an outer card slip case.  At around £17 on Amazon UK at the time of writing (actually even cheaper on in Italy) it represents excellent value.

Some territories saw this issued back in February but The Roxbox is released in the UK on 11 May 2015.
