Hi Marky, this is truly magnificent. Thanks for your incredible time and effort on this. Even Laxboy seems to like it, which is unusual for anything that isn't the Gorillaz!

Is the Bankrobber photo of Joe's dad?
Ha! no mate that's John Dillinger.

Glad Laxboy likes it. I hear lineage to Gorillaz!.
Whoops, the Mr Spock ears made me think there was a family resemblance.

Laxboy agrees with you!

Did you excise the kiddy tracks? You bastard, that's the best part! :shifty:

Seriously, tho, I think this is the last piece to replace all the official releases now. Take a bow, drink in the applause. :cool:
Maria Gallagher singing "The Guns of Brixton" is an extra unlisted track on the "Bankrobber" 12". Luke, Ben and Maria Gallagher can also be heard sampled on the track "Shepherds Delight" on the Mikey Dread comp.

The only tracks not included are "Career Opportunities" kids version and the original version of "Mensforth Hill" which is substituted by a new mix I made called "Something About Dub" also on the Mikey comp.

So up yer bum! And thanks.😎
Well … okay then. We expect some kind of 75 minute kids CO megamix at some point, just to show us (a) you can do it and (b) there's no such thing as a free lunch. ;)
75 mins that's side one taken care of then. ;)
Side B is the same thing played backwards. Ta da!
The Clash are not The Beatles. Played backwards obviously but randomly mixed with pieces of kitchen sink.

I really like This Is Dub Clash, so disc 2 of this box set is just brilliant as far as I am concerned, it is going to get a lot of a play.

Just got to the outtakes on disc 3. They sound so much clearer. I don't know how you do it but I'm glad you do!

Outstanding. Once again. We are running out of superlatives.
Just one query from me - On the redux album, is there a story behind the running order?

I agree mate. I like that dub Clash so yeah having the Mikey tracks together works for me.

The original running order didn't really work that great with tracks like Hitsville U.K. so early on. I played around with loads of different track lists but felt this worked best. Some tracks compliment each other better than others. I feel it flows really good. I like having "The Call Up" as the lead off track as it shows how different this album was going to be.

But really just my preferences.

God damn, Marky this whole set is immense. This is a real deluxe package that Sony/the band should take note of.

Quick question, are the Bonds tracks from June 6 or 9?
Look, you have to establish context for these things. And I maintain that unless you appreciate the Fall of Constantinople, the Great Fire of London, and Mickey Mantle's fatalist alcoholism, live Freddy makes no sense. If you want to half-ass it, fine, go call Simon Schama to do the appendix.

Thanks mate and good spot. They are from June 9th. If you go back to the post for the live tracks the artwork has been amended.

INFORMATION

The Bonds tracks are from the June 9th show and not the 6th as labelled. So you should change the tag for those.

The artwork has been amended and is in the original post for the live disc.
