I cherish the Housemartins and have loved them since day one but have not liked Fat Boy's solo work nor the vast majority of South's output aside from a full albums worth of songs. I would be afraid of how new material would sound. A few live dates might be cool but its not necessary in my book. What I really want is the deluxe version of The People Who Grinned Themselves To Death to come out! Probably for the best.
