'Well Done, Underdog!' is a Lloyd approved 'bootleg' book published by Raw Shark Books and put together by graphic novelist Lee Thacker, who also illustrates the book. It contains (pretty accurate) versions of all of Lloyd's lyrics from the earliest Nightingales records - the 'Idiot Strength', 'Use Your Loaf', Paraffin Brain' and 'Urban Ospreys' 45s, the Cherry Red Peel Session EP and the 'Pigs On Purpose' album

INSULT TO INJURY
The most recent Nightingales album recorded with Hans-Joachim Irmler of krautrock legends Faust, available on the Klangbad label (KLANGBAD40) through Broken Silence distribution (Germany/Austria), Cargo (UK/Europe) & Darla (USA) or www.klangbad.de

The follow up to 'Insult' ('The Lost Plot') was recorded at Faust Studio last August and is due for release by Klangbad, but who knows when?

AND ANOTHER THING

Available from early July at Nightingales shows or mail order from Big Print (write for details)
£5 (+ £1 postage + £1 extra if paid via paypal)
'And Another Thing' is a very limited edition CD. A kind of 'official bootleg' featuring ten Nightingales live recordings from Nov '08 - Aug '09 (ie, since Andi and Christy joined the group) in Germany, USA and UK. The CD includes several previously unreleased songs and at least a couple which will not be available on any future releases. There are some rough versions and the recording quality is variable but it is still pretty good
