Billingham-born singer - and Boro fan - Paul Smith reworks The Fall's Edinburgh Man to promote his band's new album






Maximo Park have released a video recording of Middlesbrough Man - their reworking of The Fall's Edinburgh Man.


As previously reported in the Gazette, Billingham-born Paul Smith, frontman of the Newcastle-based band, adapted a song from the The Fall’s 1991 album Shift-Work.


It features on the deluxe limited edition version of Maximo Park’s new album, Too Much Information, out this week.


“I am not really an Edinburgh man, I’m a Middlesbrough man," Boro fan Paul told the Gazette in December .


“I just did it as a bit of a laugh. In the end it sounded great.


"It just fits so easily, it is kind of a no-brainer really.”
