It's been awhile since I listened to FS in its entirety, so it was a fun breath of fresh air to hear this track again! Awesome video link to the live performance, too!

I’m glad you’re enjoying it! It has been a really fun time on my end so far and we’re only two tracks in haha

Great find with that Viva Variety clip! What fun! I was surprised that Graham was singing backup and not Flans.

Maby may be my favorite bassist, as he was Joe Jackson’s bassist for some of his best albums and I got to see him with Joe a few times. It’s possible I saw him with TMBG and never knew it!

Let me finish! I have the floor! I was saying that Maby maybe might be my favorite bassist, but favorites are a fickle bunch as they can be a bit full of themselves. And when that happens I always will say you’re my favorite FOR NOW.

Great song and great piece.

As teenager, I didn’t appreciate following the lineage of the rest of the band of TMBG because I had this rigid thinking that only the Johns mattered. I like going back and learning about the people they chose to record and tour with. I don’t know that Maby AND I was also always shocked/Confused that Maby was backing up vocals in the clip
