It Bites - Leaving Without You (Live) Town & Country Club London 1989

This is not just a song, more a sumptuous feast, and we ain't talking M&S either.

What amazing first lyric of the song

Lovely Roland D-50 shakuhachi sound patch on the synth solo starting at 4.38.

One of my favourite IB songs.

Wonderful.

Unbelievable. I discovered them few months ago by coincidence, and I have been playing guitar since 1989... When music was made by musicians... They should have been world class. Probably this band is another victim of the 90s, an awful decade for guitar-driven music... thanks to Nirvana et all the other grunge robbish that the music industry has decided to push. Suddenly it was cool to suck at your own instrument... This is Prog-Rock-Pop at its FINEST. Music at its finest.

no way, Dunnery was the soul of It Bites, but im sure the others had an influence as his solo stuff is nothing compared to this.

These guys are amazing. After the departure of front man frank dunnery, I thought the magic would be gone. How wrong could I be. New man John Mitchell is amazing, and does all the old it bites songs justice. I think I have to say John beck is why it bites sound the way they do. Incredible musician. All of them are.

I feel alone here! 677 views? Incredible. It amazes me how a band this good can be so overlooked & underrated.
