very nicely done, however, the one thing i'd want in addition in the product package is some extra 12" sheets included in the book documenting the illustrations of the original artwork. any chance of providing them as a separate addition, even if purchasable for a few quid more?

I got mine the other day...

Very interesting Paul. I own the two original box sets. Why wasn't the original artwork used for the covers? Hopefully the box will drop in price a bit to tempt me.

Another incomplete Billy Bragg collection seems ridiculous to me. How hard is to release a box set with a complete collection of his B-sides from his officially released singles and EPs? This goes al the way back to "Back to Basics" leaving off a song from between the wars. There are still missing tracks just through "William Bloke" even if you own both Vol 1 & 2 sets, Reaching to the Converted, Bloke on Bloke, and this 14 CD set. Thanks for the 4 or 5 songs that fill some of the gaps but I'm sorry to say this is simply another lame cash grab. Oh and how about all of the missing unreleased Peel Sessions tracks.
