from the Associates mailing list:
Well negotiations with Polydor/Universal went right down to the wire,
were almost scuppered at the last moment, but agreement has been
reached, I spoke to Alan yesterday and we agreed to sign. So the
remastered original Affectionate Punch will be released on 1st August
2005 by Polydor/Universal, appropriately on the Fiction imprint, 25
years and one month to the day after the original release.
Bonus tracks are:
"You Were Young"
"Janice" (first mix)
"Boys Keep Swinging" (MCA mix, different to Douple Hip version)
"Mona Property Girl"
