Best-selling author Ian Rankin has collaborated with The Charlatans singer Tim Burgess to release a limited edition 12" vinyl release of their creation A Little Bit of Powder, available from selected Oxfam shops across the country, with proceeds going to the charity.

A Little Bit of Powder is a short story written by Ian Rankin for Tim Burgess's record label O Genesis, and features actor Craig Parkinson reading the piece. Rankin said 'I had a great time writing the story. I wanted it to involve music and musicians and to take place at Christmas... Like Tim, I'm a big fan of Oxfam, so it's great that A Little Bit of Powder can help a favourite charity'.
