A live album and video documenting performances of all eight albums in The Catalogue, the remastered run from Autobahn to Tour de France Soundtracks. The most extensive format is a four-disc Blu-ray set with a 236-page hardback book. It was nominated for the Grammy Awards for Best Dance/Electronic Album and Best Surround Sound Album, and it won the first of them at the ceremony on 28 January 2018, the band's first Grammy win. The shows that played the eight albums in order included a run at the Museum of Modern Art in New York in 2012 and eight nights planned for Tate Modern in London in February 2013, with 3D film versions of the band's visuals. The Guardian reported in January 2013 that demand for the Tate nights had crashed the gallery's website the previous December.
