James Yorkston/Adrian Crowley collaboration (1 Viewer)

This is from the James Yorkston mailout that he sent yesterday;

I have a new album out soon. Sort of. It's an old album, and it's only half mine - quarter even. Thar she blows:

It's myself & Adrian Crowley, singing the songs of Daniel Johnston. Coming out on Adrian's record label, Chemical Underground on December 6th 2013. We originally recorded it for Fence Records back in 2009, I think. Ltd Edition of 500 copies vinyl, 500 copies CD, plus the usual download. I have no link for you here though, I don't know when it can be pre-ordered or anything like that. Must be soon though, eh? I'm sure I'll Tweet the bejesus out of it, time comes.

I'm terribly excited by this. One of those 1000 copies had better make its way into my posession.

Yes, I'm excited too.

Poor Lauren crying into her porridge like that.
She could have just added some salt instead.
