About
Released November 2010 (deluxe editions mailed out December 2010) Label Foreign Office Catalogue # FO007 Limited to only 3000 copies and only on sale for just over 2 weeks, this fanclub CD blended 7 new tracks recorded in Autumn 2010 along with 8 previously released (however, some of these 8 were rare and hard to find). For fans willing to pay £150 they were treated to a personally written Christmas card from the band and most special of all, a 1 track CD of a song called Christmas Boots. The lyrics to the song were specially written & recorded to include a personal dedication to the paying fan. The band has confirmed that the song will be unavailable anywhere else.
