i've just found out that this release existed... it's a 4-cd box set of cocteau twins' non-album tracks. (limited edition, don't know if it's still available.) does anyone have this here? |

never heard of it,but would be worth getting hold of |

i have most of these releases... but i bought them seperately. mostly good stuff. |

it's readily available where i live (middle of us), i just saw it in the shop yesterday. i have most of what's on it already, so i wouldn't buy it, but i'd say if you like the cocteau twins and don't have the majority of what's on these discs, it's absolutely essential. some of their best work, i think, but i notice that there are some annoying omissions: "dials," "crushed," "the high monkey monk" and the instrumental version of "oomingmak" (unreleased or compilation tracks that were included in the ep box set from fifteen years or so back). but i suppose there's always a sin of omission with this type of compilation. |

Glad you ask uzim. I have it and I love it. All songs are remastered and sound wonderful. I'm pleased to see that we have some Cocteau fans here. |

Do you have the "Violaine" and "Tishbite" singles? I'd love to have those, mostly because of the cover art. But they quickly became unavailable. The prints were quite limited; not mentioning "Snow" of course... |

yeah i have all 4 singles violane green and purple and tishbite orange and blue each one only has 3 tracks on it, the single and 2 b-sides. but it adds up to 8 total unique b-sides. |

i recommend it if only because the box set reissues of their eps and singles from 1991 wasnt it is mastered differently than the new remasters of their lps and if youre like me you like to queue the whole discography to gether and this set rectifies those disparities. |

i have it, it's xlnt |

i agree, in the days before mp3 players, queueing up all those tracks was a total pain. one thing is for certain, for a band with so much internal strife, they were damn prolific. dangerous for a poor college kid with his first credit card. |

it would be nice to have this one. i really like their stuff. i always have to order the stuff i really want, overseas of course. that sucks. |
