It is now 12 years since ‘Ladies And Gentlemen We Are Floating In Space’ made a profound impact in the summer of 1997, both critically and commercially, with its psychedelic soundscapes and heart-rending lyrics. Originally packaged as a giant pill offering a written prescription, the album will be re-released with new artwork on special limited edition formats with 2CDs of bonus content.These bonus tracks give a valuable insight into the artist’s work-in-progress–and include demos, instrumental versions, and session mixes–and highlight an aim for perfection prior to recording the definitive version.
The Special Edition includes the original album in the legendary and unique pill pack style packaging, alongside the 2 bonus discs. This is a limited, one-off release.
