Description

RE-PRESS: CD ORIGINALLY RELEASED IN 2017 .
- 81 track five disc CD box set that rounds up all of Mungo Jerry’s recordings for the Dawn label between 1970-74.
- Disc one is the debut “Mungo Jerry” album which hit No.13 in the UK and No.14 in Germany. Now comes with four bonus cuts including the rare Italian only 45 ‘Santo Antonio Santo Francisco’.
- The second CD contains the “Electronically Tested” album which hit No.14 in the UK charts back in 1970 and includes the world-wide No.1 ‘In The Summertime’ which sold over 30 million singles. Also included is the UK No.1 ‘Baby Jump’ (Germany No.11) whilst the No.5 hit ‘Lady Rose’ is amongst the bonus tracks, as is the previously non-CD USA version of ‘Have A Whiff On Me’.
- The UK No.13 hit single ‘You Don’t Have To Be In The Army’ is the lead track on the band’s third album which now comes with four bonus tracks including three rare album session out-takes.
- Disc four is the legendary “Boot Power” album. The single versions of ‘46 And On’ and ‘Open Up’ (UK No.21, Germany No.28) have been added as a bonus.
- The fifth disc is the “Long Legged Woman” album which was more a collection of non-LP singles and B-sides than a “proper” album. Includes the UK hits ‘Long Legged Woman Dressed In Black’ (No.13) and ‘Alright Alright Alright’ (UK No.3, Germany No.12) as well as the German hit single ‘Wild Love’.
- The booklet contains liner notes by Alan Clayson plus stacks of picture sleeves from around the globe to get the collectors updating their “wants” lists!
- Mastered from original tape sources by James Bragg.
- The music is housed in a clam shell box with each CD in its own cardboard wallet depicting the original LP artwork.
- A true Rock icon, Ray Dorset aka Mungo Jerry was actively involved in the production of this box set.
