within the '...Cube' is the first ever appearance on record of
his 'Watership Down Suite', a symphonic composition based
upon his score for the successful TV series, and much much
more. The 16 discs are presented as 8 double albums and
presented in a 156 x 156 x 116mm rigid cube box, with an
hinged shoulder lift-lid. The outer box does display just some
light edgewear in places, but barely worth mentioning whilst
the contents all remain in stunning near 'as new' condition!!
