Roxette - Bag Of Trix (Music From The Roxette Vaults)

• This item is available only by request for in-store pick up

Bag of Trix: Music From The Roxette Vaults is a four-record collection of 46 previously unreleased or long since deleted Roxette recordings, including demos, alternative mixes, Spanish versions, bonus tracks, and other fun stuff from the Swedish band's long, illustrious, and extraordinarily successful career (1986 - 2016).

"Both Marie and I loved to be in the studio and record our music, and looking back at it now; it's quite overwhelming how much material we did produce—a lot more than we ever released. But I guess we were so spurred on by the whole fantastic Roxette circus we were in at the time," Per Gessle says with a smile. 

"A lot of what was then 'only' put out as bonus material on CD singles in Japan or maybe didn't see a release at all, today feels like an interesting part of our catalog. And that's why I think that the 'Bag Of Trix' trip can offer quite an interesting listening experience, especially if you have followed us over the years."
