NewsOut This Week / 17 November 2014
David Bowie / Nothing Has Changed (greatest hits)
The three-CD version of David Bowie‘s new hits collection remarkably spans 50 years, although the two-CD (pictured) and the double vinyl take slightly narrower view of his back catalogue. 
Bruce Springsteen / The Album Collection, Vol 1 (box set)
The first seven Bruce Springsteen albums remastered and repackaged in CD and LP boxes. We’re hearing great things about the remastering, particularly the early records.
Depeche Mode / Live in Berlin (5-disc box set)
Superb value for this 2CD+2DVD+blu-ray audio box which as well as audio and video of Depeche Mode Live in Berlin, includes a 5.1 hi-res surround mix of Delta Machine.
The Jam / Setting Sons (deluxe and super deluxe)
Unreleased demos, live sets and Peel Sessions are some of the highlights in this Jam reissue of Setting Sons, available as a 2CD deluxe or 4-disc super deluxe. 
Various Artists / The Art of McCartney (Various Editions)
A-list musicians cover Paul McCartney songs. The super deluxe version is ludicrously over the top (and expensive) and includes a bespoke Hofner bass USB stick.
Lisa Stansfield / Album reissues & box set
Apparently delayed from last week… Lisa Stansfield‘s Arista albums expanded to deluxe three-disc sets including 1989’s smash hit Affection. A brand new remix anthology is also released and everything can be purchased as part of a smart box set.
Jimmy Somerville / Dance & Desire: Rarities & Desire (2CD+DVD)
First announced back in July, Edsel’s Jimmy Somerville set is finally out this week. Part rarities mopping up exercise and part video anthology, this three-disc package takes in all the different elements of Somerville’s career (Bronski Beat, Communards, and solo artist) and should be a fine companion to the 2012 deluxe editions.

Early 1970s Captain Beefheart remastered for the first time. Three studio albums and a bonus track of previously unreleased outtakes in either a 4CD of 4LP box set.

Got my Lisa Stansfield box set last week, and I am very happy with it. Not sure whether there was any delay or not.
