"The Admiralty Lights" is a super deluxe career spanning boxset of legendary singer songwriter Al Stewart’s work. Comprising 50 discs, this remarkable collection features Al’s 21 studio albums, which have been remastered from the original tape transfers, housed in original sleeves and lovingly presented in deluxe LP style jackets.

Also included are 18 discs featuring never before heard live concert recordings from 1970 to 2009, 3 discs of rare BBC Sessions from 1965 to 1972, and 8 discs of demos, outtakes and rarities, offering a rare inside look into Al Stewart’s world. Limited to 2000 copies, this is a one time pressing worldwide.
