The new Edwyn Collins album got me wondering again about the Orange Juice reissues. A 7 disc box set?! Do you know what's to be included besides the albums?
No information about that yet. At a guess, two of the remaining three spaces will be taken up by Ostrich Churchyard and The Heather's On Fire; the third CD, though, will be interesting so long as it's not a best of.
