Keane / “The Best Of”: deluxe editions
British band Keane have a new greatest hits out in November.
The Best Of Keane is available in a number of configurations including a special super deluxe edition set which contains two CDs, a DVD and a 100-page hardcover ‘photo scrapbook’.
The first disc is a 20-track hits collection while the second CD contains 17 B-sides. The DVD features an August 2013 acoustic gig, where the setlist was chosen by Keane fans.
The photo book is quite small (190mm x 190mm to be exact) and overall this set doesn’t exactly feel like outstanding value. Fans might be better off sticking with the standard deluxe edition which is a two-CD set, replicating the audio on the Super Deluxe package.
The Best Of Keane is released on 11 November 2013

Both cd are excelent
Mike, i’d like to know the answer to that too. Second album not too bad but from then on, awful! Seems to me this release represents a band out of ideas.
James & Mike, seriously? Keane has always been consistent with the quality of their albums. Night train is probably the worst and Under the Iron Sea being the strongest in terms of track list. I admit, some of the songs need to grow on you, but they are not awful on first listen too…
We can only regret there is no DVD with the videos in this one…
Err, could someone enlighten me to what they achieved bar the first lp?
It’s cheaper on sainburys. £30 extra for a DVD and a book i think not i will be getting the 2CD.
