This is almost tempting to me because it's the first-ever BCR anthology-style box set and it has the rare Nobby Clark-sung single version of "Saturday Night." I'm not a Nobby fan, but the collectible aspect alone is interesting. And Linda will like the fact that the Duncan Faure era is represented as well. Too bad there are no tracks from the '80s reunion tours or 1985's Breakout, but at least the BCR finally got their own box set. About frickin' time!  CD 1 1. Keep On Dancing 2. Alright 3. We Can Make Music 4. Jenny 5. Wouldn't You Like It 6. I'd Do It Again 7. Manana 8. Because I Love You 9. Saturday Night 10. Hey C.B. 11. Remember 12. Bye Bye Barbara 13. Shang-A-Lang 14. Are You Ready For That Rock 'n' Roll 15. Angel Angel 16. Just A Little Love 17. Ain't It Strange 18. Jenny Gotta Dance 19. Summerlove Sensation 20. Bringing Back The Good Times 21. Saturday Night CD 2 1. All Of Me Loves All Of You 2. The Bump 3. Bye Bye Baby 4. It's For You 5. La Belle Jeane 6. Keep On Dancing 7. Once Upon A Star 8. Let's Go 9. My Teenage Heart 10. Rock 'n' Roll Honeymoon 11. Give A Little Love 12. She'll Be Crying Over You 13. Money Honey 14. Maryanne 15. I Only Wanna Dance With You 16. Don't Stop The Music 17. Love Is 18. Too Young To Rock 'n' Roll 19. Wouldn't You Like It 20. Eagles Fly 21. Lovely To See You CD 3 1. Love Me Like I Love You 2. Mama Li 3. I Only Wanna Be With You 4. Rock 'n' Roller 5. Let's Pretend 6. You're A Woman 7. Yesterday's Hero 8. Rock 'n' Roll Love Letter 9. It's A Game 10. Dance Dance Dance 11. You Made Me Believe In Magic 12. Are You Cuckoo 13. Dedication 14. The Way I Feel Tonight 15.

Anyone here familiar with their releases...?

Now I'm wondering if Salvo is going to further remaster and further expand the entire Rollers catalogue. That's what they did for The Move, Buzzcocks and Undertones, all of whom already had remastered, expanded albums on the market.

Judging from the tracklistings, I'm guessing they're just repackages of the 2004 remasters...not that there's anything wrong with that!

I also loved their work on the Procol Harum catlg as well. As for the Rollers set, I am definitely getting this! Salvo's rep is the clincher! Rick A.

I just wish there were more in the way of rarities. I wonder if "Remember" is the rare original UK single version with Nobby Clark vocals as well. That would give me another reason to justify it. And "Kings Road Chelsea" is a Les solo tune as far as I know, unless there was an unreleased BCR version I never knew about.
Just too bad that the legal mess regarding their long-simmering royalties suit wasn't resolved already, as this box set would be a great tie-in to the proposed reunion of the the classic Rollers lineup that Les wants to get off the ground. Maybe it could even include "Gossamer Dream" and/or other studio tracks from the ill-fated 1999 reunion as seen on VH1's Behind The Music as well.

Looks worth it for the early singles previous unavailable on cd and will tell some one I want it for Christmas.

Agreed. Nobby wasn't a great vocalist, but it is good to finally have those early singles and b-sides collected. This is pretty much the box set I'd put together. I might have chosen a few different tracks here and there, but overall, this is a very solid representation of the BCR.

Look closer, Chris — the back of the box (the second image you posted) has the tracklisting, and it confirms both of the above. "Remember" is the original UK single version, and "Kings Road Chelsea" is a Les solo track.

And if this is truly remastered, then I guess I'm in. Why I'm buying a box set with material I own 99% percent of is beyond me, but what the hell....?

Sounds like there may be at least 3 tracks you don't have, and with 81 tracks, that would only be about 96% that you already have.

I will buy, but an unexpected car repair today will push such purchases back a bit. Cars!
