Well, it's that time of year when we ring up our local pressing plant and ask if they might be able to put us on their Christmas list. This year we'll be pressing that long deleted US-only bonus disc 'More Words And Music' on 12" vinyl. When we did the new deluxe CD earlier this year, it did feel like a shame that oddities like Solid Gold, Racing Car and Your Valentine hadn't made it onto vinyl. So here they are! Exactly as it was released in 2012 but now on beautiful clear vinyl with green, yellow and black splatter effect to match the main album, or for purists an even more limited black vinyl edition. Sleeve design comes courtesy of Paul Kelly and of course features the Phil Skegg/Dorothy song map. A companion album to the record the Guardian's Michael Hann considers our best ever.
As there's nothing new on the record, anyone who places an order will also receive our Christmas 2020 CD-stroke-Christmas card. This contains three brand new recordings: Access To All Alone, Toot Baldon and Wish Park. Not actual Christmas bangers, as this didn't really feel like the year for our Shaky tribute, but all three are exclusive songs. Sleeve photography is by Alasdair McLellan and the EP was produced by Augustin Bousfield of Bradford legends Gurgles, and we think you'll like it.
