THE COMPLETE CATHEDRAL OCEANS
[5 LPs in album-style 12x 12 book set]
• A very limited edition 5 LP album-style 12x12 book set from one of the most influential exponents of electronic andambient music, the original frontman of Ultravox, and a solo artist for over thirty years. John Foxx is name-checked by many of today’s top acts as a big influence, and was a major contributor to BBC4’s documentary “Synth Britannia”.
• Now, for the first time on vinyl in one package, this fabulous hardback album book set contains all three of Foxx’s ambient classics “Cathedral Oceans I” (1997), “Cathedral Oceans II” (2003) and “Cathedral Oceans III” (2005) on five LPs.

FAB - U - LOUS cool

Even for those of us who don't (yet) own a turntable, this is a must have piece of loveliness.

Though I am surprised to see it's not on Metamatic Records...?

Did they have a pre-order up, as now it just shows unavailable, and they don't know when it will be?

Either way, the release date is the 2nd of September...

Hmm, very nice. But I will have to convince myself of this I'm afraid. Will have to convince myself what 100 pounds would otherwise buy (or not as the case may be)!! 10 CDs (by other artists, naturally) that I might never play? Ok, convinced. Perhaps ...

Had the book been available separately for half the price then I'd have no qualms. I personally have no need for the vinyl. But hey. By the way I presume that the book is similar to but not just a blown up version of the CD/DVD box set book? And can I have the DVD on Betamax please? http://www.metamatic.com/forum/images/icons/default/wink.gif
