NME in exclusive deal for Doherty single

by Media Week, Media Week 04-Sep-07

Pete Doherty's band Babyshambles has teamed up with NME to give away its comeback single Delivery on seven-inch vinyl a week before the official release.

The cover of the vinyl, appearing with the 12 September issue, features
an exclusive design originally drawn by Doherty in his own blood, while
the B-side has an interview with the band discussing its new album.

The deal follows an earlier tie-in with the White Stripes, who released

120,000 copies of their single Rag and Bone as a limited-edition vinyl
with the 6 June edition.

NME editor Conor McNicholas said the edition was bound to become an
"instant collector's item".

"Yet again NME is leading the music and publishing industries by
creating big release events to excite music fans," he said.

"Pete is very close to our hearts and we're made up to be working with
Babyshambles and Parlophone in releasing this unique track."
