Description
A 50th Anniversary 33CD/2DVD Super Deluxe box set celebrating the work of Ireland’s greatest Celtic Rock band, Horslips.

The ultimate collection of the band's recorded work, More Than You Can Chew contains more than 500 audio tracks and features over 250 previously unreleased pieces and 4.5 Hours of unreleased video.

The set has been curated by Bert Jansch/John McLaughlin biographer (and longstanding Horslips fan) Colin Harper in close collaboration with the band members.

The audio, including most of the film audio, has been restored and (re)mastered by IFTA award-winning engineer Cormac O’Kane.

Herculean Horslips biographer Mark Cunningham has written the books in the set with fresh input from the band and, wearing his day-job designer hat, has lovingly designed the set under the oversight of Horslips’ de facto art director Charles O’Connor.

More Than You Can Chew also includes two albums new to any digital medium: Tryal (1983) by the Host (a post-Horslips band featuring Eamon, Johnny and Charles) and Breaking Star Codes (1983) by Barry Devlin.

Contents:

• 33 CDs containing 506 audio tracks 252 of which are previously unreleased
• 2 DVDs containing two documentaries - 4½ hours of previously unreleased material
• 262 page lavish hardback historical book: 'On The Record'
• 88 page lyric book
• 5 vintage 8 x 10 photos each signed individually by all five members
• Folder of fan club facsimiles from the 1970s
• Reproduction concert poster - National Stadium, Dublin 1972

Always liked this band but $439!

If they'd release the 13 original albums with the Tracks from the Vaults in a separate box... maybe.

Love Horslips too, one of the premier Celtic Rock acts from Dublin Ireland. Discovered them in 1977 when the album Aliens came out. If you love TULL and wish there was a group like them then check out Aliens especially the track called “Second Avenue”!
