Newly issued UK version on Vashti Bunyan's label, with 2 bonus tracks. US version was supposedly released in 2002 on SpinART, whatever the fuck that is... "As we all know Folk is having a big revival in 2004 with its many offshoot genres (Brit Folk/Laptop Folk/Folktronica/Country-Folk/Nu Folk etc ) encompassing a wide range of great artists from the likes of Laura Veirs and Laura Cantrell through to The Memory Band and Devendra Banhart. Here is a new, very special name to add to that list. Half Smile was recorded for Joe Boyd's Hannibal label (Boyd also produced the album) but was eventually picked up by spinART in the U.S. This version features 2 unreleased tracks ('Never Fails' & 'Heyday') and different artwork. Hank Dogs are a family who have been running the Easycome acoustic night for over a decade at the Ivy House in Peckham Rye and were arguably the progenitors of the whole nu-acoustic or nu-folk movement."
