The opportunity to get your own name, or name of your choosing printed on the prescription certificate that accompanies each of the 1000 collectors edition units of ‘Ladies and Gentlemen We Are Floating In Space' numbered and signed by Jason Spaceman ends tonight, November 30th at midnight Pacific Standard Time on www.lagwafis.com

ATP Recordings / Spaceman are offering the very limited collectors edition of this release for £125 plus pp, although the unlimited, somewhat more affordable version of the reissue, was released in the UK today.

The limited edition includes 12 x 3" Mini CD"s of the complete album track-by-track, a homage to the original release and will be accompanied by 2 bonus discs (for tracklisting see www.lagwafis.com). For those who don't wish to open the blister pack, each unit will come with a code to download the original album in MP3 format. Limited to just 1000 units, each collector's edition will come with a prescription numbered out of 1000 and signed by J Spaceman.

The ‘Ladies and Gentlemen We Are Floating In Space' Collectors edition will be sent out worldwide from the UK on December 16th. It is now 12 years since ‘Ladies And Gentlemen We Are Floating In Space' made a profound impact in the summer of 1997, both critically and commercially, with its psychedelic soundscapes and heart-rending lyrics. It has influenced a whole range of musicians ever since. It was NME's album of the year for 1997 and reached No.4 in the official charts. Originally packaged as a giant pill offering a written prescription, the concept was creatively inspired reflecting the depth of emotion and trauma laid bare on this truly remarkable work.

The album will be re-released with new artwork on special limited edition formats with 2 CDs of bonus content. These bonus tracks give a valuable insight into the artist's work-in-progress; and include demos, instrumental versions and session mixes which highlight an aim for perfection prior to recording the definitive version.
