Dear Beatle City,

You may be aware that Sir Paul McCartney has recorded a track on the Ian Dury
tribute album 'Brand New Boots And Panties' just released by east central one
records. We'd like your help in spreading the word and letting your site's
fans know about a special microsite designed and built to celebrate the
release (at www.dotmusic.com).

As you know Ian died in March last year and since then his friends and
colleagues have teamed up to stage a successful benefit gig at London's
Brixton Academy and now this special tribute album. The album features
versions of Ian's classic songs by other luminaries alongside Sir Paul
McCartney: Robbie Williams, Billy Bragg, Sinead O'Connor, Cerys Matthews,
Wreckless Eric, Grant from Feeder, Madness, Shane MacGowan and Keith Allen.
50% of the record companies profits of the album will be donated to the
Cancer BACUP charity for which Ian was spokesperson.

The album has been helped by a massive online campaign based around the fan
sites of those artists taking part. We also have audio clips, interviews,
e-cards and specially designed webmaster buttons which we'd love you to take
and help us make the album a great success.

The special 'Brand New Boots And Panties' microsite at www.dotmusic.com
features video interviews, exclusive photos, a webcast of the Brixton show
and some great competitions. It is being built and hosted in association with
dotmusic.com the well known music website. (1.7 million users per month)

I hope you will take part and spread the word.

Many thanks
Bob Paterson, east central one records
