Since the break-up of Arab Strap some five years ago Aidan Moffat has been a busy man. And while there's been a handful of albums and mini-albums there has only been the one single back in 2009:-
mp3 : Aidan Moffat & The Best-Ofs - Knock On The Wall Of Your Womb
mp3 : Aidan Moffat - The Lavender Blue Dress
The single is a complete re-working of Lullaby For Unborn Child from the How To Get To Heaven From Scotland album and features the Mansionhouse Ensemble (which is basically Alun Woodward aka Lord Cut Glass and ex-member of The Delgados).
mp3 : Aidan Moffat & The Best-Ofs - Lullaby For Unborn Child
The cover of this limited 7" (500 copies all told) features an image courtesy of Leonardo Da Vinci while the back of the sleeve has a photo of Aidan in shock on the floor of the delivery room during the birth of his son.
The B-Side is again a bit different - a childrens' story.
And here's the promo....all actual footage of Mr Moffat at the time of the birth of his kid.....
Next Saturday's single features Alan Rankine.

Argh! Missed this one and the links have gone from the box. Any chance of a re-up?
