The Who / Polydor Singles 1975-2015 / seven-inch box set

Who_polydorsinglesbox

Universal Music will issue The Polydor Singles 1975-2015 in May, which is the final set in their four volumes of classic Who singles…

To date we have had boxes celebrating singles on the Brunswick, Reaction, and Track labels and this new set will contain 15 seven-inch singles released in the band’s Polydor Records era, which spans 30 years (1975-2015).

As well as familiar hits such as Squeeze Box, Who Are You and You Better You Bet, this contains a seven-inch of Eminence Front which was scheduled for release in the UK (with sleeves printed) but never issued.

As with previous boxes, the records are pressed on heavyweight vinyl with card picture sleeves (where applicable) reproducing the period graphics front and back. The vinyl is housed in a rigid ‘lid-and-tray’ outer box and this comes with a 20-page colour booklet with liner notes about each release and period memorabilia.

The Polydor Singles 1975-2015 will be released on 6 May 2016.
