Yesterday Today 1992 - 2018

This 228-track 15CD collection is a celebration of one of Britain's finest bands. Including all of their studio albums from the self-titled debut album 'Ocean Colour Scene', to the chart-topping 'Moseley Shoals', 'Marchin' Already', 'One from the Modern' and the post Brit-pop 'Mechanical Wonder', 'North Atlantic Drift', 'A Hyperactive Workout for the Flying Squad', 'On the Leyline' and the later albums 'Saturday' and 'Painting'. Moreover, the B-sides and rarities included in this box set offer a treasure trove of lesser known Ocean Colour Scene classics. There is the Free-inspired 'So Sad' and 'Men of Such Opinion' (Simon's favourite self-written lyric), the irresistibly melodic 'Huckleberry Grove', featuring the Jamaican ska legend Rico Rodriguez, and the more sedate ballads 'Robin Hood', 'I Need a Love Song' and 'Mrs Jones' and a cover of 'Day Tripper', featuring Noel and Liam Gallagher. To round off the collection, you may also want to listen to an unreleased song of Weller's, 'For Dancers Only', which Steve unearthed for Ocean Colour Scene's 2007 release, 'On the Leyline'. Accompanying the 15CD collection is a stunning 72-page hardback book, with in-depth essay from award winning author Daniel Rachel depicting the rise of Ocean Colour Scene from the inside. No stone has been left unturned as alongside these words the book is packed with incredible photographs from Ocean Colour Scene photographers Lawrence Watson and Tony Briggs, many previously unseen. There's also personal memorabilia, tour flyers, back stage passes from legendary gigs, lyrics and more.
