Young’s manager Elliot Roberts told a news conference at the South By Southwest Festival in Texas that the project was finally ready for release and would be with us early in June.

The multi-disc set will be released on Blu-Ray, DVD (both 10 disc) and CD (8 disc) and a number of variations of those formats costing from around £200. It will contain a massive amount of unreleased and unheard material (in audio terms alone there are 128 tracks, 43 of those previously unreleased and 13 of those never before heard).

The CD box contains the previously released Fillmore East and Massey Hall concerts as well as six more discs containing a mixture of live and studio material.

The Blu Ray set is something altogether more special. The ten-disc set will act like a “filing cabinet” of music containing all of the material available on the CDs as well as hours of documentary, live and studio footage, hundreds of photographs, notes and bits and pieces of memorabilia. People that purchase the Blu Ray edition of the box will be able to download and update their Archive “filing cabinet” with new material as and when Young adds it.

You will also be able to buy all of the separate discs in all of the formats individually.
