Description
Often referred to as the UK’s answer to The Band or The Eagles, Meal Ticket were a formidable force on the booming Pub Rock circuit of the mid 70’s.

This 3 CD box set features each of their albums – “Code Of The Road”, “Three Times A Day” and “Take Away” – two of which have not previously been issued on CD.

Two rare live B-sides have been added which, along with singles such as ‘Simple’, ‘Yesterday’s Music’, ‘The Shape I’m In’ and ‘Blame’, give a complete round up of all of the band’s released material for EMI International and Logo Records.

Michael Heatley, editor of “History Of Rock” and long-time champion of Meal Ticket, has provided insightful sleeve notes in conjunction with the band.

As well as the three albums in replica card wallets the box also contains a 20 page booklet.

Mastered from the original tape source by James Bragg.
