Oasis (2) – Dig Out Your Soul

This is a really well done box, which had the unfortunate timing to coincide with the global financial meltdown of 2008, a time when buying, let alone making a luxury set like this was seen as insane.... I don't know of many deluxe sets made for albums released when the album is first released, this one contains, not only the album itself, but (nearly) everything else from the release cycle of the album, outtakes, b-sides, remixes. If you are truly hardcore, you will need the Japanese Falling down CD & DVD combo single to essentially complete your "Dig Out Your Soul" collection. Presented like one might find an old 78RPM album, It really is a heavy, quality set and can still be had for much less than many 2008 first pressings of standard albums. If you are a fan of Oasis and don't have this, I recommend you do yourself a favor and get this.

It´s somehow mindblowing for me, to see how cheap this box-set still is here on Discogs? If u haven´t seen it in real, u cannot really understand how this box-set shows. I own a bunch of different box-set, but this one for me, is the most complete and luxurious box-set ever. When i buy a box-set, it is to get the extra, and also the luxury of it, and this box is top of the pop. The prices here are insanely cheep. Cheers from Denmark.

This 33 version sounds better than my 2018 45RPM pressing. Definitely benefits from the 33, I thought the 45RPM would sound better but No.

Looking to purchase the insert that was included in previous reissues, if you have one you are willing to part with message me

Looking to purchase just the insert from this album, if anyone has one message me

Sounds great. Got this years ago, only official release of this excellent Oasis album. Only wish it didn’t go up in price so much because now it is almost impossible to get a back up copy. This is probably the rarest Oasis album on cassette, but it sounds great, and the artwork is reproduced very well.

I had the album on CD before (and still have) and must say this pressing is excellent and sounds even better than the CD.

My brother had this on release and i loved it, finally got myself a copy all these years later n Mint sealed condition for £55 quid, they are out there and the box set is something else, the style is absolutely gorgeous, presentation is amazing, the hard book style cover art, everything, honestly its just different class.

The record itself is crisp, clean, each instrument sounds so full and clear, the tunes are some of the best Noel and co has written, definitely there most psychedelia, every song is a banger in its own right, and flows beautifully together. The drumming by Zak Starkey is that amazing combination of his old man Ringo and his god father/uncle Keith Moon (yes true story imagine being taught how to drum by those two and you can hear it!!!) I'd rate this album 5 out of 5 for the tunes alone, but the whole package of this box set truly sets it apart from anything else I've seen including all the recent Oasis remaster box sets, the recent Beatles Giles martin box sets, even the mid 2010s Led Zepp box sets.

If you can get one of these i'd say Bag it up!

This is a superb boxset of a very overlooked album. Oasis live in the shadow of their early albums, but this one ranks up there for me. It’s about as well produced as you’ll get for Oasis music and songs like I’m Outta Time, Falling Down, The Shock Of Lightning and Waiting For The Rapture are simply superb tunes by any measure.

The box is big, heavy and the contents are simply beautiful. It’s a hardback book style presentation with each record having its own page, but they are also in polylined sleeves. The CDs and DVD are on the inside of the back cover, there is also a hardback LP sized book containing lyrics and artwork.

The 45 RPM records are superbly pressed and sound immaculate. The bonus content across the additional LPs and bonus CD are well worth having if you love this band and album. Tracks like Lord Don’t Slow Me Down and The Boy With The Blues were not included on the standard version of the album and they are great tracks. This is typical of Oasis that some of their great songs weren’t even singles or album tracks, their hidden gems are just that - pure gems.

This is just a great presentation of their final (at time of writing album). I have a suspicion Noel’s ‘defiant rock album’ which he’s talked about making, might end up being an Oasis album - let’s hope so.
