Every Move You Make -- The Police Vinyl Box Set Coming 11/16/18!

Vinyl collectors rejoice!


The Police's full discography has been remastered and will be released on 180g vinyl on November 16, 2018. It will include a bonus disc of outtakes, most of which were previously released on with their CD boxset.

I remember when their previous box set came out in the 90s, Message In A Box. It was touted as "here it is, everything Police ever recorded", yet fans immediately took them to task for forgetting some key tracks that existed. I wonder if this set is going to truly be complete (or is meant to be).

Even the previous set was a nice set to have. This looks good, too.

True and fair points.

I don't think it's as comprehensive as MIAB because it would require maybe 3-6 more vinyl discs. I'm just thrilled to get the albums in remastered 180g discs.

I'm with you. There is no real way to put a smattering of outtakes on vinyl without it being a 10 or 12 disk set (depending on the artist or whatever). The real pull is getting the albums remastered on 180g. I'd respect the set even more if it was just billed as a remastered album anthology vinyl set. They don't have that many studio albums anyway.
