The Mission to release ‘For Ever More’ box set chronicling 2008 full-album concerts

The Mission next week will release a new 5CD box set that collects live discs recorded during the band’s 2008 run of show in London that saw full-album performances of classic early records The First Chapter, God’s Own Medicine, Children and Carved in Sand.

Out March 30 via Cherry Red Records, For Ever More: Live at London Shepherd’s Bush Empire features the performances of each of those four albums (though the records are not necessarily performed in sequential track order) plus a fifth disc featuring a best-of set performed on the final night of the run.

The shows all were previously released a decade ago on individual CDs.

The new box set features sleevenotes by journalist, DJ and TV host Natasha Scharf.

See full tracklist below.
