This 5 CD boxed set includes sixty songs written and recorded by the Scottish-Australian singer and songwriter Eric Bogle. Eric has chosen the songs from his recorded output spanning the period from 1980, when he released Now I'm Easy, to 1997 and the release of Small Miracles. Colin Irwin of the Melody Maker said of Eric " Most of the best contemporary songs of the 70's were written by Eric Bogle"

All of Eric's "big" songs are included in this collection including "Now I'm Easy", "No Man's Land" (aka The Green Fields of France), "Leaving Nancy", "And The Band Played Waltzing Matilda", "Small Miracles" and many more.  Tracks have been included from albums Plain and Simple; Hard, Hard Times; Just The Funny Stuff; Scraps of Paper; When the Wind Blows; Voices in The Wilderness; Something Of Value; Singing The Spirit Home; I Wrote This Wee Song; Mirrors and The Emigrant and The Exile. With the exception of Plain And Simple and I Wrote This Wee Song, all these albums have been deleted and are no longer available.

Eric Bogle writes........"Boxed sets of Greatest Hits usually appear after the songwriter in question is safely dead, but I'm in reasonable health and I need the cash now. Anyway, this isn't really a Greatest Hits compilation, it's more a collection of the songs that are most requested at my live concerts, plus a few of my personal favourites. Taken together they form a pretty fair cross-section of the type of songs I have written over the last 30 years or so."
