I don't like the look of this at all, and that sleeve, its like a direction-less version of saville's dazzle ship sleeve. why is he rerecording new order?
Interesting.
As three of the songs were co-written by Bernard, Steve and Gillian I wonder if they are getting a slice of the publishing or sales.

Probably not, they are covers so you only have to pay MCPS royalties (Mechanical royalties on a per copy basis, and there aren't too many copies).
"The idea of doing a limited edition book seemed like shameless cashing in at first. Yet as I sit here going through the prototypes and plans for the Foruli collectors editions of "How Not To Run A Club" I can see how beautiful they are and the obvious respect that has gone into creating what I can only call works of art. They really evoke and bring to life the original and authentic graphic identity of the Hacienda around the text, so now the book not only tells the story but becomes a much more complete testament to The Hac. Its design and identity was always funded with no thought of expense, as the club prioritised Art well above Money. Foruli have managed to immortalize my original book with these special editions and I have to say I'm delighted with the result. I just hope someone treats me as reverently when I am gone!"

Hooky now prioritising money well above art.
This will the first ever NO related record I wont be able to afford to buy.
Sad state of affairs.
wanker..
and he puts out a version of the Viking theme at the end, in the hope just one of us buys it.
:rip:
Are these instrumental covers, or is Hooky singing them?
I won't be buying this, but there could be someone out there somewhere in the world who might.
(Anyway, interesting how all of these 'sets' by the artists on that page, not just Hooky btw, come with books).

I can't find the bit re the price. Is it really £600 cos if it is its far too expensive. Much as I like Hooky I can't afford that!

Click into Shop then Buy (the deluxe edition).
Can't imagine what they want for the Ultimate Edition.
Think I'd prefer the 81/84 book that's about at the moment.

Come back Revenge, all is forgiven

You've only just realised?
Nope.
"Can't imagine what they want for the Ultimate Edition.eek!"
I heard that the 6 editions are going for £4,500 each - and that two are already sold.
You can get a decent bass guitar for £400-£500.

Well, there you are then. It shows theres a market for these things. Hooky ought to go on Dragons Den with them, I reckon that tall one on the end likes a bit of New Order.
