The Gathering Sound is a stunning anthology of James’ long musical career. It contains all the studio albums up to publication, many rarities and demos, a DVD, booklets, stickers and badges.

The studio albums are: Stutter, Strip-mine, Gold Mother, Seven, Laid, Wah Wah, The Best Of / Unhinged (Compilation), Millionaires, Pleased To Meet You, Fresh as a Daisy – The Singles (Compilation), Hey Ma, The Night Before, The Morning After

The music is spread over a USB back-catalogue, three CDs or rarities and live recordings, a DVD and 12″ Vinyl. All the studio albums are on a unique J-shaped USB stick apart from The Morning After The Night Before, which is on CD (as a single album as the US import version was).

Also included are a 6-page A5 booklet featuring personal contributions from each of the band members and those associated with the group, including One Of The Three curator Dave Brown.

There is a 12″ scrapbook featuring previously unseen and rare photos, memorabilia, cuttings and many other items straight out of James personal archives including a complete timeline of James’s career annotated by the band.

And finally postcards, badges and sticky satin replica backstage passes, all in a 12″ presentation box.
