Available finally on Sunday, May 14th is the PinkFlag America box for Wire. From the Pink Flag press release: "The long awaited collectors' box set contains re-mastered re-issues of Wire's groundbreaking classic first three albums Pink Flag, Chairs Missing, and 154, along with two CDs of previously unreleased recordings documenting the bands' live performances at the Roxy, London (1st and 2nd April 1977) and at the CBGB Theatre, New York (18th July 1978) providing a set of the essentials of 70s Wire provided from both the studio and live standpoints."

 

"Here you have the touchstone albums brought back to vibrant colour, each contextualised by documentation of a series of transitional performances, contemporary images and writing designed to bring the whole alive. These are simply the essential documents for a serious appreciation of 70s Wire and should be in every serious fans' collection."
