Title: The box set...
Post by: JJ (Joanna) on December 10, 2012, 07:37:49 PM
Well I think its a novel way to buy a box set! £6 for 6 songs, so that's a bargain at a pand per song!  ;)

 The first installment included the box and if you are a collector you would have purchased E1 last year (and got them signed of course), these are the songs

1. Walk Into The Morning
2. The London Apprentice
3. A small Voice Calling
4. A Feather Fell
5. Cannabis Creek
6. When They Were Young


This year we got 2nd/B and these are the tracks...

1. When Maddy Dances
2. Conundrom of Time
3. Aquamarine (Saucers)
4. Arthur Blake
5. First and Last Man
6. Pykie Boy

Of course you needn't miss out as these are available from Merch tables if you went to see Ralph on tour, or available from his website.

So, what do we think of it so far (not sofa as in noodling!  :D ;D) Do we like the choice of songs? (of course we do I hear you cry).

It's novel because once you start your collection you just have to finish it plus we are assured at least that Ralph will be continuing on for a few more years yet, so its a win, win situation all round!

Start your collection now, you know it makes sense!  ;)
