THE FALL The Wonderful And Frightening World Of... The Fall (2010 issue UK Omnibus Edition 50-track 4-CD album set - Originally released in 1984, 'The Wonderful And Frightening World Of The Fall' was the band's eighth studio album and their first for Beggars Banquet. This release chronicles that year; from the full integration of Brix Smith into the group, the introduction of John Leckie as the recording producer, the BBC sessions, live shows, changes in the line-up and the rise of a wider appreciation for The Fall's music. The first CD edition [issued in 1988] followed the extended track sequence of the cassette but for this Omnibus Edition the album has been re-mastered from the studio analogue tapes and restored to its original nine song format with all additional tracks on Disc 2. Disc 3 gathers all the relevant BBC sessions: not only a John Peel session recorded in December 1983 [the earliest recordings of 'The Wonderful And Frightening World Of The Fall' material] but also previously unreleased sessions from David Jensen and Janice Long, as well as a 'Saturday Live' recording. Disc 4 is a live recording made by VPRO radio at Pandora's Music Box festival in The Netherlands, and is remarkably perky considering The Fall took to the stage for their headline set at 3.15am on a Sunday morning. Each disc comes presented in Japanese-style mini-LP paper sleeves reproducing the original vinyl cover art, all housed in a lavish boxset complete with a 48-page picture book!)
