Hailing from Heston in West London, The Bluetones (Scott Morriss u bass, Eds Chesters u drums, Adam Devlin u guitars, and Mark Morriss u vocals) arrived on the scene in 1995 with their debut single oAre You Blue Or Are You Blind'o. They followed this up with oBluetonico and then oSlight Returno, which reached # 2 on the UK singles chart. The debut album oExpecting To Flyo was released in February 1996, and went straight to # 1. This 3 LP box set contains the original 1996 album, a 12 track LP of non-album A- and B-sides, as well as the collection of pre-fame demos oThe Early Garage Yearso. The box also contains the 12 x 12 booklet from the original limited edition sleeve, as well as a note by 6Music DJ Steve Lamacq. The three LPs are pressed on 180 gram blue vinyl.
