I didn't even lower my expectations, and it was still better than I thought it would be.
Favorite track: (Please, Please) Lower Your Expectations.
Here is my new album. It looks like it has 2 tracks, but it actually has 14. The last 12 are what Bandcamp call 'hidden'. They appear when you download it. Otherwise you could just listen to it all for free here. Also I have added a bonus commentary track, where, if you press play at the right time with the album playing in the background, you can listen to me droning on about the show.
I really hope you like it. I'm very pleased how it all turned out.

When you say album, are you using the Arabic for 'the' when you say 'al'? What do i think of the bum? Daniel Kitson as the bum or the bum as an entity in itself? Although the bum as an entity in itself would be a bit weird, so I'll assume you mean Daniel Kitson as the bum, yeah I love 'im, bloody wordy geezer. blimey100
