For almost a quarter of a century, Ocean Colour Scene has been recording and releasing
an ever-growing catalogue of instantly recognisable and skillfully crafted songs, all
supported by an unrelenting live schedule that would put many a younger band to shame.
 
Now seems as good a time as any to catch our breath and celebrate a career that has
bought us ten studio albums, 33 singles (many with non-album B-Sides and bonus
tracks, adding to their prodigious output) plus live releases and compilations.
 
'It's A Beautiful Thing: The Best of Ocean Colour Scene'
will be made available as a 26-song 2LP set (their first hits collection on vinyl since 2001).
