The final instalment of these boxes is about to land, namely The Who – The Polydor Singles 1975 – 2015.

As you probably know, the boxes have been issued of the band’s output by label and era as part of the 50th anniversary celebration. This one has 15 x 7-inch singles from the band’s Polydor Records era, each press on heavyweight vinyl with card picture sleeves (where possible) reproducing the period graphics front and back.

All of that comes in a rigid ‘lid-and-tray’ outer box complete with a 20-page colour booklet with liner notes about each release and period memorabilia.

If you want to see what’s in the box, see the track listing below. If you just want to complete your set, you can pre-order now ahead of the 6th May 2016 release date. The retail price is £117.99. The other (earlier) boxes are still available too.
