REQUEST RESTOCK NOTIFICATION
always wanted to get into this legendary '80s janglepop band led by Creation's Alan McGee but didn't know where to start? why not just get it ALL! This box contains all six lps (plus a never-released seventh), all the singles & comp tracks, tons of demos (many of which are unreleased) and an unreleased live set, PLUS everything and more from his excellent previous band, Laughing Apple (and THAT band's predecessor, Newspeak) and some demos recorded with Jowe Head - I've gotta say: THIS is how you compile and package a discography!

Terms and Conditions

Refund Policy

We have a 14-day return policy for items that are still sealed. If it is not sealed, it is non-returnable. Please send us an email at shop@jigsaw-records.com for instructions, should you need to return anything.

We try to pack every order as securely as possible, but if your package somehow gets damaged in transit, please let us know.

Shipping Policy

All orders are shipped via USPS. All rates vary by weight and destination, so please check your cart to view the postage cost for your order.

For our international customers: if you are ordering more than a few items, you can email us to ask about a possible postage adjustment, as I can get a more accurate weight (especially with multiple lps involved) or by simply removing cd cases to reduce the package weight. However, if you are ordering only one cd or record, then I'm afraid the price you're seeing is the actual price - ridiculous, I know, sorry...

Terms of Service

We sell records, you buy them. Any further questions? Email us at shop@jigsaw-records.com.
