Description:
Rhino UK is pleased to announce a remarkable 5CD Box Set by The Pogues, at least three quarters of which comprises previously unreleased material while the remainder is made up of decidedly hard-to-find Pogues' rarities.
Compiled by The Pogues with track by track annotations from Phil Chevron, there are a bountiful 110 tracks from 1983 demos (pre-dating their first recordings for Stiff Records) through to live recordings from 2001
Just Look Them Straight In The Eye is an absolute treasure trove of unreleased recordings for all Pogues' fans, spanning their entire career and featuring rehearsal recordings, B-sides, out-takes, rare mixes, BBC sessions plus recordings with Steve Earle, Joe Strummer and, of course, Kirsty MacColl.
Alongside these are unreleased soundtrack recordings from Sid and Nancy, Garbo and Straight To Hell, alternate versions of Pogues' classics like "Fairy Tale Of New York" and "Rainy Night In Soho" and a generous selection of live recordings

shame about the exchange rate... although around $70 is what one could expect to pay for a boxset in these parts.
