"There will be extensive touring commitments with my dear friend Polly (PJ) after the release of her new album in February 2011 so availabilities might be a bit tight early on. We recorded her album back in May in Dorset and it’s a remarkable piece of work - quite unlike anything else out there. Would one expect anything else?"
Why is it we never hear anything from Polly's official sources?
As someone pointed out over on unforumzed, this quote has been deleted (without explanation) from Mick's blog.

Oh.. this is weird... why would they do that? What is the sensitive information they're trying to hide from the world?

It was totally gone earlier today. Now it reads like this:
"There will be extensive touring commitments with my dear friend Polly (PJ) after the release of her new album so to some degree availabilities will be determined by that."
I can see maybe the Feb 2011 date is subject to change, but why nix the comments about Dorset?

Ok maybe one with autoharp...
I feel that some instrumental tracks composed by P.J. would be really exceptional on this new album. With P.J.'s usually unique combination's of instrumentation and time signatures it can only add to her greatness.

It is very odd about Mick deleting the Dorset comment on his blog.
We knew from Mick's blog back in January that he would be recording with PJ in April.
This time Mick's Aug 31 blog comments got out and were very widely quoted. I'll bet in the future all PJ recording participants will be sworn to secrecy.

The new ones have more digits, making them easy to spot:
Bitter Branches
England
Gloriuos Land
In The Dark Places
Written on the Forehead
Words that Maketh Murder
And yes, that is not a mistake with "Gloriuos". That's the way it appears on the BMI web site.
It appears I missed one, "Dead In Love".
Its number is earlier then the batch above, but later than the AWAMWB songs.

I wonder if they'll make JP retract his myspace PJ news from June:

On the subject of myspace, it's interesting that the official island site lists PJ's facebook site, but not the myspace site.

Also, more activity on the facebook site although it's simply a link to a YT clip of Sparkleshorse's Eyepennies.

Oh bugger. Every time I see the title of this song now, I'm going to think of this from Engrish.com:
