Surely the 4 tracks with Chrissie Hynde are on there too.

Perhaps they might coincide it with a live performance? Perhaps in the North? Perhaps followed by an Obscure show?

from Geowayne pages: Later, during the U.S. leg of their Super Tour in Autumn 2016, Neil told me, "We are planning to expand it into a more visual production with additional music. We don't consider it finished yet but plan to record it at some point."

After more than a decade, hopes for an official release seemed faint. In September 2025, however, during a Q&A session at a British Film Institute centenary screening of Battleship Potemkin with the Tennant-Lowe score, Neil confirmed that he and Chris were at long last working on a new studio recording of A Man from the Future with the Manchester Camarata. Juliet Stevenson will once again be providing the narration.

I don't think this has been asked yet, but does anyone think there could be a single release from this?

My guess is unlikely. I would think there was more of a possibility of a single release from the upcoming Naked production. They showcased I Dream Of A Better Tomorrow (sounds commercial) at the Obscure shows from it, but we shall see...

I think it will be in the same vein as Battleship Potemkin or the ballet; a Tennant/Lowe release with no singles.
Really looking forward to this one!

Surely it's that. I enjoyed the concert but would much prefer an instrumental version.
