• Track Listing

UK three CD set. Featuring 52 tracks, this box set contains the three studio albums Cutting Crew recorded between 1986 and 1992, the Grammy nominated debut, Broadcast (1986), acclaimed follow up, The Scattering (1989), and the ripe for rediscovery, Compus Mentus (1992), plus B sides, remixes and demos. It's been Cutting Crew's fate to be primarily remembered for their enormous, multi- million selling international hit, '(I Just) Died In Your Arms', and that's here in two versions, but this box set shows that there's much more to the band, whose driving pop- rock is defined by strong song writing, Nick Van Eede's soulful vocals and Kevin MacMichael's lead guitar. The USA took Cutting Crew to their hearts and '(I Just) Died In Your Arms' topped the Billboard chart, 'I've Been In Love Before' reached #9 and the album Broadcast peaked at #16, going gold. In the UK '(I Just) Died In Your Arms' was a #4 smash hit. All four singles from Broadcast are also presented as extended remixes originally issued on 12" singles including the much loved 12" mix of '(I Just) Died In Your Arms' and Arthur Baker's remix and dub of 'Any Colour'. Cutting Crew frontman Nick Van Eede has opened his archives to contribute five demos to the set, including two previously unreleased - 'Open Up Your Window' and a cover of Simon Dupree And The Big Sound's 'Kites'.
