Release Notes:

Since their inception in 1983, the legendary pop rocking combo from olympia, called beat happenning have been the inhabitants of an imperfect world, one that is stripped down and codified with personal politics and emotional trauma. One of the truly seminal bands of the post punk era, beat happening’s influence on the world of minimal music, punk and pop has been massive, virtually establishing the international pop underground as its pioneering passport holders. K announces the retrospective compendium of their entire oeuvre; a seven cd box set, which includes all five of the beat happening albums (beat happening, jamboree, black candy, dreamy, you turn me on) and a sixth album (music to climb apple the apple tree by) of songs fro msingles and compilations, including the long out of print beat happening/screaming trees collaborative 12”. All of the packaging for the cds has been redesigned as beautiful six panel digipak foldouts to include additional photos, of the band. An exclusive seventh cd/rom features live and video material, live in london, live in records shops, live in olympia, and more. The seven cds are accompanied by a deluxe 96 page book written by lois maffeo that tells thee story of beat happenning through the words of the band members and their contemporaries. Limited to 5000 worldwide.
