An early draft of Highly Strung with a very different arrangement to the finished album version. Raphael's saxophone drives the intro and was an inspired one take performance.
Likewise this was Joe Breban first foray on drums, we aimed him at the songs and pressed record and the result was always direct and solid.
This version also has a few extra lines and expletives...
'like you give a fuck....sitting duck' being one of the inspired lines that I don't think made it onto the album.
The song was later edited and the intro became the solo. G
