THE SINGULAR ADVENTURES OF EDWYN COLLINS (Part 13)

Not long after the Bernard/Edwyn release came the first bit of new music from Mr Collins in four years.

It's a strange release this one.  Available only on 7" vinyl at a time when hardly anyone was releasing new music via that medium - and when they did it was usually as an add-on to what was available via CD - so it's no surprise the 45 didn't trouble the charts.

mp3 : Edwyn Collins - The Beatle$

Luckily for fans (and obsessives!!) the track was made available a short while later on the LP Doctor Syntax - although the LP version is marginally longer taking a little bit longer to fade out.

The b-side was Welwyn Garden City - and rather disappointingly is was the exact same mix as had been made available on the Magic Piper Of Love CD single back in 1997.

Happy Listening
