From my rather scratchy picture sleeved single brought from a long forgotten record shop in Tonbridge on the week of release. Magic memories :)

Nice story. 8)

I'm stuck on 'Speedboats From Another World' from 'Modern Moods for Mighty Atoms'. Melodic shifts/mood shifts/scene changes between verse and chorus. For some reason it goes nicely with 'Darkness (L'Immoraliste)' and 'Ideal Homes'.

If it's BN, his "Yank" voice is superb.

Reminds this listener of author William Gibson, as does 'This is like a Galaxy', the first track on 'Non-Stop Mystery Action.'
