Recensie
In een gelimiteerde oplage (3000 stuks) verschijnt de deluxe boxset 1985, die het verhaal vertelt van de totstandkoming van het Waterboys-album This Is The Sea dat in dat jaar werd opgenomen. De boxset zit barstensvol met vroege demo’s, alternatieve versies en andere interessante opnames, aangevuld met een geremasterde versie van het album plus een 220 pagina’s tellend boek met uitvoerige achtergrondinformatie en foto’s. Los van deze boxset is ook een heruitgave van This Is the Sea op elpee verkrijgbaar. (Godfried Nevels)
