Hi there: ) . . thought you might like to know that the backward words at the beginning of 'Rocket Cathedrals' are (forward) :-
"Automatic destruction will commence on the mother planet" . . . the phrase is repeated several times and, in fact, it is the voice of Adrian Jones, a long serving member of the road crew at the time the recording was made at Air Studios on Oxford Circus, NOT Rob Bryan, who wrote the song.
How do I know? . . I was there at the recording session : )
At my college radio station. I played them quite frequently on my show. So happy to find these songs on youtube:)

One question:
Waht is bassist & lead vocalist Bryan saying that is spooled backwards?
An ALL-TIME UBER-MEGA-ULTRA RAVE-FAVE o'mine....that is a NON-Bill Nelson composition (This is tghe ONLY one, eh?)
Bet it woulda been a *FAB* 45 single Back In The Day..
Thanx fer this, m8..
