News - 25 Years of Real World Records



A 3 CD Special Anniversary Edition box spanning 25 years, featuring classics, hidden gems and tracks chosen by listeners. From Peter Gabriel’s Passion to 9Bach’s Tincian - and over 200 albums in between - Real World Records has blazed trails, opened doors and introduced a whole new world of music since 1989.
 
In addition to the 3 CD wallets, the beautifully packaged clamshell box includes a 28-page booklet containing the story of 25 Years of Real World Records, and a collection of Real World Tales with contributions from musicians, producers, designer and managers.


THE 3CD BOX – Real World 25
 
Condensing 25 years of history onto three CDs was always going to be an impossible task; we knew we would only ever skim the surface of the extensive range of wonderful music we have been so lucky to encounter. But here goes:
 
CD1 brings together tracks that have been significant highlights or 'classic' points in the label's history.
 
CD2 delves deeper into the catalogue, shining a light on some tracks that beg rediscovery; the buried treasures.
 
CD3 is the listeners' choice – we asked people to choose their favourite Real World track.
