Mccarthy Complete Albums Singles & Bbc Collection CD

2014 four CD set. McCarthy were '80s indie stalwarts trading in politically energized guitar pop and this box is a true treasure chest of hooks, riffs and leftist messages. Hailing from Barking, Essex, McCarthy are today considered one of the standard bearing politically inclined bands of that era, possessed of a broader outlook and wittier, better observed lyrics than most of the competition. This set comprises the bands three albums (originally recorded between 1987 and 1990), related singles and b-sides, and a sixteen track BBC sessions collection, most of which is previously unreleased. The CDs are packaged in mini LP replica wallets, and presented - along with a booklet - in a hard clamshell case. Contains countless classic originals and classic live sessions versions. (Note: McCarthy guitarist Tim Gane would later be the leading creative force in Stereolab)
