And there will be rare stuff on it

All 19 UK singles by The Clash are to be released in a boxed set with original artwork.

The seven inch Singles Box, out October 30, will be true to the originals - including replica sleeves and labels - with the addition of the never commercially available NME giveaway ‘Capital Radio EP’.

The collection will include numerous bonus tracks, six of which have never previously been available on CD, from 12”, non-UK B-Sides and promos.

The CDs will be packaged in 7” style sleeves and vinyl reproduction CDs.

The package will also include a 44-Page booklet with extensive sleevenotes, unseen and rare photos and memorabilia.

The sleevenotes include contributions from Mike D, The Edge, Bobby Gillespie, Irvine Welsh, Steve Jones and Damon Albarn among others.
