  Navy Blues is finally turning 21! Since a debutante ball is a bit expensive, what better way to celebrate this LP’s formal coming of age than with a marginally less expensive deluxe vinyl box set! In 1998, we were coming off the heels of our most successful record, One Chord To Another. This 4th LP was the first record where there were real expectations, both commercially and critically. First single “Money City Maniacs” did (and continues to do) well at radio (and, currently, at Raptors games) here in Canada.While the record was, at the time, generally considered a nod to a more 70’s-rock infused sound, in hindsight it’s feels like a pretty varied collection from 4 songwriters. Perhaps the extra content from the era added here even expands on that notion. As with our previous Twice Removed and One Chord To Another box sets, there will be three LPs contained within. First up is Navy Blues in all it’s glory remastered from the original mixes, followed by a second LP of home demo recordings for each track on Navy Blues…some with early different arrangements and alternate lyrics. The third LP is a 14 song collection of outtakes from both the formal studio sessions at Chemical Sound where the album was recorded and a handful of demo recordings. Some of these songs wound up being re-recorded in different forms further down the road in our career (some lounging around for 20 years!) and some never went any further than here. The Outtakes LP almost makes for an alternate upside-down-world 1998 album that never was.  As well as the three LPs, there’s not one, but two 7” singles included this time. The first single contains two more demo recordings leading up to Navy Blues…an early rocking incarnation of Chris’ “Summer’s My Season” titled “Rock Star Admit It” paired with a home demo of Patrick’s “Out To Lunch”. The second 7” single is a reverse nod to the very limited white vinyl, label and sleeve “Rhodes Jam” single we released in 1997. This time it’s an all black vinyl, label and sleeve instrumental outtake called “Hammond Jam”. That’s correct…”Hammond Jam”. That’s me trying to keep up on bass while Chris wrestles the drums and Andrew jams the Hammond. That leads us to the piece-de-resistance from the attic offices of “Murphy Design”, the beautiful 12” x 12”, 32 page, full colour book detailing the recording process, stories and experiences from the era along with song by song specifics all told in an oral history fashion. This is all rounded out with many unseen photos, posters, artwork, ephemera, lyric sheets and many other items that have finally found justification for sitting stored in boxes over the past 21 years! Now we’d absolutely be unable to make these box sets without our friend and photographer Catherine Stockhausen’s wonderful archive of photos and once we again had more visual content than would fit in the booklet. So, we relegated a shot she snapped of us atop Reaction Studios in Toronto (where we mixed the album) to create a deluxe 18” x 24” poster contained within. We’d like to thank all the fans who have been supportive and encouraging of both the previous box sets and tours (not to mention the continued interest in our new recordings). So please make room on that shelf, and we hope you dig this latest deluxe box. We’re looking forward to seeing you all this fall and next spring. Thank you for all the times we had, Jay Ferguson September 2019

   1) Payment is due within 4 days of auction end. If payment not made, an unpaid item case will be filed with Ebay.
  2) Feedback given once buyer gives feedback first. If intent on leaving negative feedback or not happy with item, please email me first to hopefully come to a resolution.
  3)  Not all records pressed are entirely flat; there may be a slight rise and fall to them. For purposes of this auction, they are not warped. A warped record means it is totally unplayable. THERE WILL BE NO REFUNDS GIVEN UNLESS THE RECORD SOLD FALLS INTO THIS CATEGORY, INCLUDING RETURN SHIPPING. 
  
  4) Before you bid on an item, consider shipping costs, handling time, and other shipping services. Review the item description carefully. If you have any questions about shipping or anything else, contact the seller beforehand, NOT AFTER THE SALE!
• I suggest you ask for an invoice before purchasing. If you pay for an item and ask for a partial refund, I will deduct the ebay/paypal fees before the refund because that is money out of my pocket.
  
• 
  
• 5) International Buyers: I mostly ship using Global Shipping Policy. Import duties, taxes, and charges are included in the price or shipping cost. These charges are the buyer's responsibility. Please check the auction to determine what these additional costs will be prior to bidding or buying. Also if package ships back to me for any reason, Global Shipping will not return it to me. This means you will not be refunded. Please make every effort to make sure item is deliverable.
  6) International Buyers: If you can not interpret the rules of this auction due to a language barrier, you may want to have someone who understands English explain it to you. It's not my problem/responsibility if you don't understand. By bidding you are expressing to me you understand and are taking responsibility for your actions.
  7)  Not paying for an item after you agree to buy it has negative consequences, explained in Ebay's Unpaid Item Policy.
  
  8) I have no problem if you ask for a different shipping method not specified in the listing. Just be aware that I am not paying for the difference out of my own pocket.  Ask questions first and wait for the invoice before paying.
  
  
  9) Combined shipping is no problem.  However, if you purchase multiple items and pay the shipping for all of them without requesting an invoice, THERE WILL BE NO SHIPPING REFUNDS, no matter what the $ amount is.                                                                                                        
• 10) If your payment is briefly delayed due to exceptional circumstances, let me know. 
  
  11) Delivery confirmation will be supplied. Buyer is responsible for tracking package. If package listed as delivered and buyer never received it, contact your local Post Office. Also, seller is not responsible if item is delivered and buyer did not make arrangements to secure item (ex: away on business, vacation, etc.).
• 
  
  12) For purposes of this auction, records/sleeves graded "Near Mint" means there are minor imperfections (ex: minor corner dings, creases, splits, etc.), i.e. not a perfect copy. Also a "Brand New" item can still be removed from the packaging. It's brand new whether you or I open it.
  
  13) New records are graded Still Sealed or Near Mint (NM).

• 14) Finally, if a winning bidder:  Does not want it after it is paid for and demands their money refunded, Mistakenly bid on or claims someone else did and does not want item (exception: bid retraction before auction end. If you can't figure out how to remedy situation, refer to eBay policies), Is not able to redeem a gift card or coupon, Claims they somehow received same item from an outside source, or Purchased item in hand/pre-sale item and found it cheaper or from another source before it shipped to them from Ebay seller (if item is delayed beyond stated time of arrival, I have no problem offering a refund), be advised, any ebay/paypal fees will be deducted from refund, unless auction lists "no refunds".
