The record companies have got smart to this being a big week for releasing cd's for the Fathers Day market. A few years ago they re-released the Travelling Wilburys set on the same day and it was top of the charts for a while.
The main high street music retailer, HMV, has The Chain 4cd reissue up on a big "presents for Fathers Day" display as soon as you enter the store. £13 being a great price for a 4cd boxset, even if it is 20years old.
I ordered mine online, should be hear any day now.

Thanks for clarifying. I just wondered since in both its versions it's the only Mac compilation to feature any stuff from the BW era.
Does it have more in its sleevenotes than the 2CD version? I seem to recall it had a signature from John as well as the other four who had theirs featured in the 2CD but wasn't sure if there were others.
BTW should be HERE any day now. Sorry, you can tell I'm bracing to become a literacy teacher.
