Label GB

Demon is a UK 80s New Wave label that was founded by Elvis Costello, Andrew Lauder, and the company behind the label in 1980. In 1998, the label was acquired by Music Collection International and merged with its Westside Records operation. Today, Demon forms part of the Demon Music Group Ltd.

Ocean Colour Scene is a Birmingham, UK-based band that was founded in 1990. The band is made up of former members of The Boys, Echo Base, and The Fanatics. Paul Weller's regular guitarist since the early 90s has been a part of Ocean Colour Scene. They have had various collaborations with other artists like Steve and Paul Weller. Their recording studio "Moseley Shoals" in Moseley, Birmingham pays homage to the famous Muscle Shoals studio in America.

Despite some changes in the lineup over the years, Dan Sealey and Andy Bennett have been permanent fixtures since replacing Damon Minchella in 2003. They even played on the "Moseley Shoals 15th Anniversary Tour", which they didn't originally record on.

Ocean Colour Scene has had an impressive musical journey with connections to renowned musicians like Paul Weller and The Who. With their unique sound and dedication to their craft, they continue to captivate audiences worldwide.

Box Sets

This 228-track 15CD Collection is the first of its kind. A celebration of one of Britain’s finest bands. Including all of their studio albums from the self-titled debut album Ocean Colour Scene, to the chart-topping Moseley Shoals, Marchin’ Already, One For The Modern and the post Brit-pop Mechanical Wonder, North Atlantic Drift, A Hyperactive Workout For The Flying Squad, On The Leyline and the later albums Saturday and Painting.

Moreover, the B-sides and rarities included in this boxset offer a treasure trove of lesser known Ocean Colour Scene classics. There is the Free inspired ‘So Sad’ and ‘Men Of Such Opinion’ (Simon’s favourite self-written lyric), the irresistibly melodic ‘Huckleberry Grove’ featuring the Jamaican ska legend Rico Rodriguez, and the more sedate ballads ‘Robin Hood’, ‘I Need A Love Song’ and ‘Mrs Jones’ and a cover of ‘Day Tripper’, featuring Noel and Liam Gallagher. To round off the connection, you may also want to listen to an unreleased song of Weller’s, ‘For Dancers Only’, which Steve unearthed for Ocean Colour Scene’s 2007 release, On The Leyline.

Accompanying 15CD collection is a stunning 72-page hardback book, with in-depth essay from award winning author Daniel Rachel depicting the rise of Ocean Colour Scene from the inside. No stone has been left unturned as alongside these words the book is packed with incredible photographs from Ocean Colour Scene photographers Lawrence Watson and Tony Briggs, many previously unseen. There’s also personal memorabilia, tour flyers, back stage passes from legendary gigs, lyrics and more. It’s all here!

classic first three studio albums; Ocean Colour Scene, Moseley Shoals and Marchin’ Already.
Including some of their biggest hits; The Day We Caught The Train, The Riverboat Song,
