Description
This 4 CD 64 track clamshell box set covers the albums issued by Punk legends Stiff Little Fingers between 1991 and 1997.

Disc 1 is the band’s ‘comeback’ studio album “Flags And Emblems”. It was the first to feature ex-Jam bassist Bruce Foxton. Includes the single ‘Beirut Moon’.

The band’s yearly St. Patrick’s Day show at Glasgow’s Barrowlands is always sold out and Disc 2 features one of the first they ever did. This is the last release to feature original guitarist Henry Cluney.

1994’s “Get A Life” album is Disc 3 and saw the band down to a trio of Jake Burns, Bruce Foxton and Dolphin Taylor. Includes the singles ‘Harp’ and ‘Can’t Believe In You’ and now comes with three ‘unplugged’ versions of well-known tracks from their early days.

The final disc is 1997’s “Tinderbox” album, now restored to its original sleeve.

Vocalist Jake Burns has provided liner notes covering this period in the band’s career whilst the booklet contains rare clippings and memorabilia as well as pictures of all relevant releases.
