Christmas Box

~ Release by The Housemartins (see all versions of this release, 1 available)

Annotation

On a slightly different "version" of this, the 'Sheep' 7" has two tracks on the b-side: 'I'll Be Your Shelter (Just Like a Shelter)' and 'Drop Down Dead', despite only 'Drop Down Dead' being printed on the label. Amusingly, the sides of the box do list 9 tracks, so it's hard to say which version is a mispress and which isn't.
