There is a few of these CD Box Sets going round

 

For example

The Clash, one of the most original and iconic bands of all time, re-release all nineteen UK Singles plus bonus tracks with their original sleeves in a beautifully designed Boxed Set entitled 'Singles'.

 

Collated with the full co-operation of Mick Jones and Paul Simonon who have chosen which bonus tracks to include and given artistic direction, 'Singles' is 2 editions of the most entertaining and awe inspiring of Clash re-issues. For the first time in a 30 year legacy, all nineteen UK singles by The Clash will be available to buy in a boxed set with replica sleeves.

 

The CD Box will include numerous bonus tracks (six of which have never previously been available on CD) from 12", non-UK B-Sides and promos as well as being packaged in ultra cool 7" style sleeves and vinyl reproduction CDs. The package also includes a 44 Page booklet with extensive sleevenotes, unseen and rare photos and memorabilia, with sleevenote contributions from other legends in their field such as Mike D, The Edge, Bobby Gillespie, Irvine Welsh, Steve Jones, Damon Albarn, Stuart Pearce, Pete Townsend, Ian Brown and Bernard Sumner among others. - HMV
