The Kamikaze Ground Crew is often referred to as 'six horns and a drummer.' The wide-ranging influences that the players bring to the group include jazz, European circus and street music, world folk, brass band, chamber music, and rock-and-roll. Among them, the members of Kamikaze Ground Crew play nearly forty instruments, and in their collective careers they have played with such musicians as Don Cherry, Brian Eno, Jon Hassell, Urban Verbs, Joseph Jarman, Carla Bley, Bill Frisell, Wayne Horvitz, and others.

Featuring 52 tracks, this box set contains the three studio albums Cutting Crew recorded between 1986 and 1992, the Grammy nominated debut, Broadcast (1986), acclaimed follow up, The Scattering (1989), and the ripe for rediscovery, Compus Mentus (1992), plus B sides, remixes and demos. It's been Cutting Crew's fate to be primarily remembered for their enormous, multi- million selling international hit, '(I Just) Died In Your Arms', and that's here in two versions, but this box set shows that there's much more to the band, whose driving pop- rock is defined by strong song writing, Nick Van Eede's soulful vocals and Kevin MacMichael's lead guitar.
