### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    Very good, nicely curated
  

*by M***C on Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 28 February 2023*

I didn't have high hopes for this but was pleasantly surprised at the curation, the sound quality, and the general progression of the collection. I was a regular visitor to The Factory / Russell Club from it's birth until it moved to The Hacienda, so I've seen pretty much all of these artists live and it was really nice to revisit this music - in context as it were. Packaging is fine, it's simple as you would expect, but it's not a Saville work of art either. Very good value, enjoyed it very much.

    Great track listing on heavy duty vinyl
  

*by A***E on Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 5 November 2020*

This is a quality product. Eight vinyl records reflecting the fascinating history of Factory records, from humble beginnings to UK No.1’s (New Order) and then to their eventual and sad demise. I do like the simplicity of the packaging.  A single brightly covered sleeve for each record - no frills. Just like Factory would have wanted it? All housed in a great heavy-duty protective box. The booklet is excellent reading but here is the only negative for me - it is printed on flimsy paper. The songs themselves are arranged chronologically. This takes you on the journey through Factory’s brief history. I think the choice of tracks is excellent. There are some fantastic songs from the usual suspects but also some real surprises. And there are also some dire ones. If Factory could have held onto James and OMD and signed the Smiths perhaps the story would have ended very differently. I’ve included a photo of Palatine (Factory’s 1991 box set) for comparison. This new box set is more logical in the way it has arranged the tracks and is on better quality vinyl. But it doesn’t have the great photography that Palatine had. In summary, this is well worth the current price tag (£67) but perhaps I wouldn’t be so sure if I had paid the full list price. Forever Factory!

    A Beautiful Bargain
  

*by M***Y on Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 4 March 2021*

Noted this a while ago but didn’t have spare cash at the time, it popped up again in a recommended list after I purchased something else and the price had dropped to a shade under £69, less than £9 per album, so had to snap it up.The box is sturdy, the albums are all in varying coloured sleeves with the same well known Factory graphic of the man with fingers in his ears.Others have complained of flimsy sleeves but personally I think this gripe is overstated, they aren’t particularly thick card but are stored in a hefty box so not sure what the problem is. The booklet is album sized and again nicely designed. I also think the complaints about the paper being thin are perhaps a bit over the top.I’m 4 albums in so far, several bands i’m unfamiliar with, some I have heard of but not heard, some nice alternate mixes from New Order that I don’t already have. The vinyl is thick and sounds fantastic.All in all a great package and at this price well worth grabbing.
