Limited copies of both formats come with a 10" x 8" photographic print Signed by A Certain Ratio and photographer Paul Husband. acr:set is a career spanning compilation featuring two brand tracks. Dirty Boy is a classic slice of A Certain Ratio pop funk and features the voice of Tony Wilson preparing the band for The Fox recording session in his own inimitable fashion, plus vocals from Barry Adamson, who returns a favour to the band after they reworked 2017’s I Got Clothes. The two new tracks, Dirty Boy and Make It Happen were recorded at Oxygene in Manchester. The album is made up of tracks that feature in the band’s incendiary live show (hence the title), and includes rare 7” and 12” mixes alongside the two new recordings and sleeve notes by DJ and writer Dave Haslam.
