Album Info

Release Date: 2007-10-19

Label: Legendre Starkie Records

Made in Salford.

Limited to 500 handmade copies on heavyweight vinyl.

On october the 19th the band The Ting Tings held the first of 4 gigs which also incorporated a
live sleeve design event. This event enabled fans to design the 7" sleeves of the new Ting Tings
single 'Fruit Machine'. The 7" singles designed in Salford will be available In BERLIN which is
where the next launch will be held. This series of events will continue until the sleeve designers
of SALFORD receive their 7" single designed by the good people of NEW YORK.

The vinyl was only available for fans of The Ting Tings to buy at their live shows. Every single released had different cover art. This is because at every concert, a hundred blank seven-inch sleeves were pinned to a wall, making a canvas on which fans could create an overall piece of artwork that, once dismantled, were used as the sleeves for the singles. The making of the sleeves was also filmed and then shown in real time at each consecutive venue.
