  • CD 1 – The original remastered album.
  • CD 2 & 3 – Live in Athens 1987
  • CD 4 – So DNA (“gives a unique insight into the writing and recording of So, experienced via a track by track evolutionary process leading you from the early moments when rhythms, melodies and lyrical ideas were discovered through the various stages of song development and recording.”)
  • DVD 1 – Live in Athens 1987
  • DVD 2 – Classic Albums: So
  • Vinyl 1 – The original album remastered at half-speed and re-sequenced to Gabriel’s original list

The Athens concert is directed by Michael Chapman and executive produced by Martin Scorsese and is the first concert by Gabriel that was completely filmed. The film has been fully restored from 150 reels of 35mm negatives.
