Because I need another alibi
In the wrong place at the wrong time

    Rather like this unplugged version! Excellent strings in the background - echoes of late Smiths, anyone?

    first a piano version of Chasing Rainbows, then a laid back version of On Standby! What's happened? Great stuff

    Loving the instrumental versions of classic Shed Seven songs that are being played instead of the originals; they work really well.

    Love this track! Was not familiar with them in the 90's (no play in U.S.) but I really like most of what I have heard. This is my favorite one, I think.

    Great live band from a great period in my life. Why they weren't bigger I will never understand.

    oh yeh, i'd forgotten they'd even existed, excellent tunes for the time, & a nice bit of nostalgia for now! I agree with donkeyflange!!
