Limited Edition of 700


The exceptionally rare Cocteau Twins vinyl box set is commonly known as Box Set One, although that title does not appear on the release.  Released in 2010, on 4AD, it was limited to just 700 copies.

The box set includes remastered versions of: Garlands, Head Over Heels, Treasure and the gatefold double disc version of Head Over Heels and Sunburst and Snowblind - 5 x vinyl in total with 2 copies of Head Over Heels. Sunburst and Snowblind is said to be pressed on dark violet coloured vinyl.  All vinyl is described as audiophile quality - 180grms. 

All the vinyl is sealed. The box of the box set is not sealed - not sure it ever was. 

New.
