Notes
Heavyweight transparent blue vinyl held in transparent red plastic sleeve with text on either side of the sleeve.
New copies shipped from the Vinyl Factory come with an additional black inner sleeve in which the vinyl is stored, apart from the red sleeve.

A total of 1000 of these were pressed. However this version was a further 700 in addition to the initial 300 numbered copies (Massive Attack Feat. James Massiah* - Dear Friend) sold at their concert on Sep 3 2016 at the Downs Bristol (and later through two Bristol shops). This version is un-numbered. This version was mainly sold through The Vinyl Factory website, stating this is limited to 1000 copies, some copies were also available in shops on the day of release, again, for £20.00.

The A side is a new and original recording with spoken word lyrics. The B side features the same lyrics, however spoken over the instrumentation of "Take It There" from Massive Attack - Ritual Spirit.
