A track listing and release date for the deluxe reissue of Heartbreaker have finally started showing up online. Last April, Pax-Am released a 7″ single featuring an alternate take of “Come Pick Me Up” backed with an early version of “Don’t Fail Me Now” called “When the Rope Gets Tight”. The single was meant to be a precursor for this deluxe version that was slated to come out late last year. It never came out and I was a little worried, but not anymore. This appears to be more than worth the wait!. I saw Ethan Johns possibily nearly a year and half ago and he said they were working on a deluxe version.
