Hi Chris, Been bought the reissue for my birthday. The TOTP for Ghost Train brought a tear to my eye, with ‘The End’ on yours and Bedders’ guitars. Reminded me of how sad I felt when the breakup happened. Must say how much I agree with Phill Jupitus’ sleeve notes, though. Of course the album is a victim of mid 80s production and of course it was a shame that Mike was gone – but it still has great moments. Yesterday’s Men is legendary and I think that one of the more uptempo numbers could still hack it as a live track. Next time you bring one back as a one off for a tour, why not Burning the Boats or Time?
Looking forward to hearing more of the new stuff, too.
All the best!
Ian
Dear Ian
I’d like to re record Burning The Boats. I think I could sneak it in to the new stuff under a false name..
thanks CB
