Even though the album's not due to drop until August 16, amongst the tracks already posted on the net are The Swell Season's take on 'I Don't Wanna Know' and Robert Smith's version of 'Small Hours' from Martyn's 1977 album One World, about which the cure singer says: “I first heard ‘Small Hours’ on the John Peel Show late in 1977 and fell instantly in love with it...One World very quickly became my favourite John Martyn album...and these beautiful songs were, are and always will be an inspiration and an enchantment.”
