BRICKLIN – Anthology – The Complete Story (1979-1999) 2023 Box-Set 8 CD


Soon For Subscr ! Bricklin will be best known to AOR fans for their massive cult anthem ‘Walk Away’ and their much-loved debut album ‘Bricklin’, but there has always been so much more to the band. From Schoolboys to Bricklin to Martin’s Dam, the core has always been brothers Brian and Scott Bricklin and together with MelodicRock Classics, the guys are finally putting all their recorded work together in the one place for the first time – with an absolute plethora of additional demos and unreleased songs.

Bricklin – Anthology – The Complete Story (1979-1999) gathers the Bricklin debut and both Martin’s Dam albums along with the best of their song recordings over the years, the majority of being previously unreleased until now. We also get a dive back into the start of the brothers work in their first band Schoolboys. This 8CD Deluxe Box Set leaves no stone unturned in showcasing the guys’ unique writing style.

As a special treat for Bricklin fans, MRC and the band are excited to announce that Disc 2 of the set will include a brand new 2023 Bricklin song – ‘Backseat Driver’, which will be released as a single soon!

PRE-ORDERS for the 8CD DVD Size Package are available now for $129 (including tracked worldwide express shipping).

The set is limited to strictly 500 units worldwide. Those familiar with MRC’s first release Hollyridgeland will be familiar with the packaging.

The official retail release and delivery of the sets will come in April. The package complexity requires a 12-week manufacturing window, but digital audio will be delivered well in advance for all pre-orders.
