Details of a super deluxe box-set edition of Oasis‘ ‘Be Here Now‘ reissue have been revealed.
£100 will get you everything that’s already been confirmed – the remastered album, the Mustique demos etc – but also in there is a hard-back book featuring exclusive sleeve-notes and rare photos, a 12” white-label sampler of the Mustique demos, a promo CD of the ‘2016 Rethink’ remix of ‘D’You Know What I Mean?’, four photographs, an embossed enamel keyring and a 7” single comprising early demos recorded by Mark Coyle of ‘Going Nowhere’ and ‘Stand By Me’.
“‘Be Here Now’ shouldn’t have worked, and with fate in the hands of a sensible, rationally functioning band, wouldn’t even exist,” we said in our reissue feature.
“The faceless ‘many’ will equally attest that it doesn’t work, and shouldn’t exist. Yet for so many others it’s the final statement from a band they love more than any other.”
“An album which in fact, to those paying attention, shares a lot with the far more cherished LPs that went before, it stands in 2016 as perhaps the most appropriately named album in history, where the ethos of the group, their era and their generation – however flawed – are captured forever in an age when rock and roll exists on the sidelines.”
