We loved Leeds in 88, and we love it now, even though we may be very far away from its muck.

Just seen them in Exeter on their 30th anniversary tour. They were terrific. I felt so privileged to see them. I've always loved this single but was not familiar with their other work. They played this and many other excellent songs in a wonderful 90 minute set. There were probably fewer than 100people watching. A band who deserve a much wider audience.

Sally's oh so wise eyes and that same jet stream sound effect used in 1960 on "The Big Hurt" by Toni Fisher. Christa and the other victims would be so honored. Ethereal yet uplifting in a very earthy manner.

Its a great song though..what does it matter that Arthur is only Sally's father by the skin of his teeth
