 official : Vince and Andy are currently working on new material; they are recording one (or possibly two) songs for potential inclusion as bonus tracks on a US edition of 'Loveboat'. They have also substantially reworked 'Moon & The Sky' and 'Alien' as possible singles releases.
if Maverick do release Loveboat, there is a strong possibility it may sound significantly different to the current 'UK' version.
