Tracklisting

 * Wedding Present: 'Once More (7")' (Reception)
 * (JP: 'I've just discovered a letter from David Gedge in my copy of it, and what does it say? It says, "Dear John, hope you're all right. Just popped in with this, our new record, hope you like it. Best wishes, see you soon, David." I'm like a father to these people and of course, everybody using the Wedding Present as something to snipe at, everyone from the NME to Grim Humor.')
