As our Message Board regulars will already have read, July 23rd finds Setanta releasing not one, but two 'Best Of...' albums from legendary Irish bands.

The first, alphabetically speaking, is A House ...In Wonderland which features such spiky pop gems as 'I'll Always Be Grateful', 'Love Is', 'Endless Art', 'Why Me?', 'The Comedy Is Over', '13 Wonderful Love Songs', 'I Want Too Much', 'Here Come The Good Times', 'You're Too Young', 'I Can't Change', 'Kick Me Again Jesus', 'Call Me Blue', 'Small Talk', 'I Am Afraid', 'Just Because', 'Spinster', 'Take It Easy On Me', 'Our Love Is Good Enough' and 'No More Apologies'.

The second, as-yet-untitled collection, celebrates the whimsical wonderfulness of The Frank & Walters. Already racking up healthy pre-sales, it includes 'Colours', 'Plenty Time', 'Fashion Crisis Hits New York', 'This Is Not A Song', 'How Can I Exist', 'New York', 'After All', 'Walter's Trip', 'Underground', 'Daisy Chain', 'Time We Said Goodnight' and Tony Cochrane'.

In other Setanta news, Pony Club mainman Mark Cullen informs us that they're appearing at Witnness and the Popkomm festival in Cologne. The band are also hoping to make it over to Italy where their Home Truths album has been getting loads of airplay.
