- ･ English-born New Yorker Rupert Holmes may be best known for his hit singles ‘Escape (The Pina Colada Song)’ (1979) and ‘Him’ (1980)， but several years prior to this， Rupert broke onto the music scene with three meticulously crafted albums for the Epic label in the space of two years. These albums were full of perfectly told stories of love， life and loss， and paved the way for Rupert’s ascendancy to the big time.
･ These three albums are now available together in one package， fully endorsed by Rupert， and containing engrossing sleeve notes including a brand new interview with Rupert himself.
･ Contains an array of bonus tracks， many of which have never been heard before， and with an absolute exclusive and a must for fans – this package contains the first ever live recordings of Rupert Holmes ever released! All selected by the man himself!
･ Contains the singles ‘Terminal’， ‘Talk’， ‘Our National Pastime’， ‘I Don’t Want To Hold Your Hand’， ‘Deco Lady’， ‘Weekend Lover’ and ‘Who， What， When， Where， Why’， plus rare alternative and live versions of a number of these.
･ All material has been fully remastered， with audio being sourced from Rupert’s own private collection of master tapes wherever possible.
･ Contains CD wallet replicas of the Epic albums， faithfully reproducing their original artwork.
