Trojan Box Set series


The Trojan Box Set series is a range of various artist triple CD box sets, periodically released by the British reggae record label Trojan Records since 1998. The series covers a wide variety of reggae subgenres, styles and themes.
Each set has standard formatting. The title is Trojan Box Set The artwork is usually a colourful, distinctive variation on a generic design, with the Trojan Records logo as the central motif. There are usually 50 songs in each set. The packaging is a clamshell cardboard box with an individual hard paper slipcase for each disc, plus basic track information and/or liner notes. Despite being billed as "limited edition", many sets have remained widely available. In addition to the 69 box sets released by the label, three additional box sets were released in limited Japan-only markets in 2005-2007 and are not widely available in other markets: Trojan Katsuo Box, Trojan HMV Box Set, and Trojan Tower Box Set. The Japan releases include more songs per set than the other 69 releases: Trojan Katsuo Box features 70 songs, Trojan HMV Box Set features 51 songs, and Trojan Tower Box Set features 54 songs. Like the other 69 releases, the Japanese box sets include three slipcases with tracklists, but rather than essays or liner notes, include original drawings and artwork. The cover art for these box sets also differs from the others in format and style.
