Beautiful track, first version I knew came from Elvis Costello's album Punch the clock. Nice to see Mark Bedford from Madness play the bass, suppose he's as underrated as Robert Wyatt. I think I read once that Clive Langer, who produced Madness, Costello, Dexy's Midnight Runners etc., wrote the music for this song. Thanks for putting this video up!

This is a brilliant song. I first came across it when Hue & Cry covered it.

I can't believe he doesn't mention his Alifie in this.

Robert Wyatt is so underrated. Awesome singer and arranger. His new album is pretty bad ass too, "Comicopera." |
