Thanks for sharing Mick. Never forget this opening track at Meadowbank Stadium Edinburgh way back around 1989. Absolutely mind blowing keyboard playing. Without your input and keyboards this song wouldn’t be anywhere near as fantastic as it is. I play this a lot and it always reminds of absent friends. Personally speaking I feel the Holy Spirit in this music. Cheers Michael. ❤
Surely Shirley it's not beyond the five everyone wants to see - Jim Charlie Mick Mel & Derek to get on the blower to one another & just say you know what, maybe we just rehearse a couple of encore songs together & without fanfare choose 1 or 2 or maybe outrageously 3, ( Glasgow, Dublin or Belfast & London perhaps?) shows where we turn up and play and enjoy it together? I'm sure fans do acknowledge clearly that Jim & Charlie's current line up are all superb musicians just as they must acknowledge that even if the line up is fluid & the instinct is to move forward & stay fresh there is a particular line up that represented a band and one that made countless classics together. This subject just won't go away, it appears on so many threads of comments on hundreds of SM videos. Perhaps the answer is simple, (of course,) and it just needs 2 of the 5 to say let's do it. For funks sake if Floyd could bury a hatchet sharp enough for Roger and David to slice each others brain boxes off with the feeblest of swoops then surely ego or money or indeed anything can't stop five men who obviously respect each others views and musicianship from getting on the same friggin stage together and blowing the tits off pretty much every other band currently on the road!? Phone Charlie Mick, tell the charming bugger you're coming like it or not and by the way the 'World's greatest drummer' and Scotland's greatest bass player are too! SHAKE OFF THE GHOSTS! Mighty respect to you all.
You can bet your bottom dollar when Jim hears that roar of approval when his 'old chums' appear even he will capitulate and then of course FINALLY they'll be a final tournament with you all. My middle name is Nostradamus.
Seeing the old line up with Mick, Derek and Brian is a bucket lister for me, and that it will remain, it seems lol! Thanks for the amazing music over the years!!
Every time I hear that resolve to Gm (rather than the expected Am), the bottom just drops out of my world. Absolute emotional surrender. Thank you Mick for this incredibly beautiful piece.
Is the Nord Lead just being used as a midi keyboard, or are they Nord lead sounds with FX added after? I've had a Nord Lead 2x and know that there are no onboard FX.
