That means the content is as follows:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>CD 1 \u2013 The Album<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>CD 2 \u2013 B-sides &amp; Rarities<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>CD 3 \u2013 B-sides \/ Extended Mixes<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>CD 4 \u2013 Live In The City Of Light (Live From Le Zenith, Paris \u201986)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>CD 5 \u2013 Live In The City Of Light (Live From Le Zenith, Paris \u201986)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><br>Unlike the \u2018ruby red\u2019 vinyl LP reissue which is the only other physical format, the version of Once Upon a Time on CD 1 of the box set doesn\u2019t feature \u2018Don\u2019t You (Forget About Me)\u2019, although that is included on CD 2 in standard and extended mix variants. The box does feature the new artwork with the red on the front comes with a 36-page booklet with rare photos, interviews, and a track-by-track guide.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The ruby red vinyl edition is packaged in a gatefold sleeve and now features Don\u2019t You (Forget About Me) as the last track on the first side, making the album nine tracks instead of eight.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To celebrate 40 years, the album is now available as a ruby red vinyl in a gatefold sleeve, which includes \u2018Don\u2019t You (Forget About Me)\u2019 on the tracklist for the first time ever. The gatefold spread features Anton Corbijn\u2019s famous photo of the band taken at Live Aid in 1985.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Both formats of\u00a0<em>Once Upon a Time<\/em>\u00a0will not be released until 17 October 2025, which is exactly four days short of the exact 40 year anniversary. Pretty sure that Amazon UK box price will fall into line soon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><a href=\"https:\/\/ngradio.gr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/image.png\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"600\" height=\"605\" src=\"https:\/\/ngradio.gr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/image.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-160810\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ngradio.gr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/image.png 600w, https:\/\/ngradio.gr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/image-150x150.png 150w, https:\/\/ngradio.gr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/image-100x100.png 100w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Source: <a href=\"https:\/\/superdeluxeedition.com\/news\/simple-minds-once-upon-a-time-40th-anniversary-box-set\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">superdeluxeedition.com<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>After confirming the reissue back in January, Simple Minds have today announced that they will release a 40th anniversary 5CD set of their 1985 album Once Upon a Time, in October.
