looks interesting but no tracklisting yet a bit pricey

10 discs? It should have everything and £88 [$114] and that's pricey, but within reason. Color me very interested if it has every mix and version from the Virgin era. I see from the 5xLP box [also on amazon.co.uk] that Demon Music Group is behind this. I hope there won't be evidence of any further Edsel shenanigans! [fingers crossed]

Edsel has put out some stellar product if compared to the other infamous UK label starting with a C. They did an excellent job with the Bananarama, Blancmange and Fine Young Cannibals albums. Hope they get Heaven 17's stuff perfect with involvement from both Glen and Martyn.

Same price as the ludicrously overpriced Human League box with much more content in this one!
I don't think Pleasure One or Teddy Bear Duke & Psycho have been remastered before (even if they are the band's worst two albums).

I suspect this will recycle a lot of the content from the Penthouse & Pavement and Luxury Gap box sets, and probably means we won't get a How Men Are deluxe after all? Be nice if it has the How Men Are fan club instrumental mixes on it.

From what I do remember a couple of years ago, I was a bit disappointed after the Penthouse & Pavement and The Luxury Gap boxsets. Especially the first one (not having all the remixes and stuff). That was the reason I remained with my 2006 Virgin remasters with a couple of bonuses. I bought all 3 of them. Soundwise they were a little harsh, but okay.

Hopefully with this upcoming big boxset, all the stuff (remixes, dubs & instrumentals) will finally be included, otherwise I won't bother.

Here's hoping ... (and that's no lie!) 8)

Just pre-ordered all three formats (there's an exclusive signed edition too) via Amazon UK. I can always cancel if needs be. Hopefully news will be up on the Heaven 17 Facebook feed soon.

im hoping the price will come down substantially. Importcd.com usually has very good prices as do some third party sellers on Amazon.

I'm hoping that Edsel gives this a thorough treatment just like they did with Bananarama's back catalogue. I wonder if after this 10cd collection they might decide to release a singles boxset with all the singles compiled in individual sleeves? would that be worth waiting more for ? That's pretty much what I'd want.

Soul Warfare (Instrumental) [I know it was a Hot Gossip b-side release, but it's basically the album instrumental]
Lady Ice & Mr Hex (Remix)
This Is Mine (Cinemix) 8:56


I would be happy if they left off 'edit's, but included 'version's. I'm also hoping a full instrumental of Let Me Go 12" appears.

You mean this one:
https://www.discogs.com/Heaven-17-Let-M ... se/1608933

I remember having a mixtape with this version on it. Indeed it is not released on CD yet. Some US 12'' Promo vinyl even had a dub version of Let Me Go, but I can't confirm this because it can also be the edited instrumental version of 4:59min:

Someone who knows if there's a dub mix/version in existence?

I'd much rather have unreleased / rare 80s material than those 90s remixes but I guess the last CD will be full of them.

the dub is the same as the instrumental, check youtube.

we had a long discussion and list of heaven 17 mixes here:
viewtopic.php?f=2&t=41257&hilit=heaven+17&start=15#p371055

still have to update and fix tracks and times.
