Arguably the finest composition to have emanated from this diminutive giant. A personal, perennial favourite anyway, which I'm pleased to see continues to pop up in his live sets, including the recent solo piano version. The arrangement here is unsurpassable. Top drawer.
4:06-4:37 Kind of sounds like Jacques Brel singing.
The lyrics towards the end are really rousing. We're the army behind Neil, his marching pink elephants, really.

I very much agree. this is part of TDC canon that doesn't get nearly the attention it deserves.
