<<The album consists of material recorded in 2000 and 2001 and some of the
songs appeared on singles in 2001 and 2002. But, the album itself was never
released at the time. A deal with Mercury to do so fell apart.
Here in Holland, where I bought the album, the 45s CD was released in
February of 2003 on an independent label. >>
The album was available in early fall 2002, but ONLY to fans who ordered it
directly from the band's website and in extremely limited quantities. The
general release was sometime in early 2003.
I'd just like to add again that I absolutely LOVE these guys, and that their
1999 debut (released under the band name RUTH, the disc is called "HARRISON")
is one of my favorite albums of all time. I believe it's out of print now but
it shouldn't be terribly hard to find, particularly for anyone living in the
UK. Fans of the pumpier side of modern power-pop (Think Fountains of Wayne or
Owsley mixed with Brit-pop) should love this.--Jason
