Blancmange -- The Day Before You Came (Studio, TOTP)

[SuperSimonuk]

always thought it was the thompson twins did this song...?

[kevin2music]

who is the tabla player? Pandit Dinesh? Interesting fusion of cultures in this cover version. Delicious Blancmange as usual.

Been researching this a bit, thought Vince Clarke was in there somewhere. He is playing clarinet on the Blancmange Blind Vision video.

[lilchonny]

Ok, thanks for that correction, sure Vince was behind the group in some way tho :-)

[lilchonny]

Spot Vince Clark on the synth, key to so many bands, Depeche Mode, Yazoo etc great musician.

@lilchonny its not vince clark its Stephen Luscombe

[PawelLopatka]

@lilchonny Clarke was key to many bands indeed, but the keyboard player here is Neil Arthur. Regards.

[PawelLopatka]

@PawelLopatka I'M SORRY. Obviously, it's Stephen Luscombe. Neil does the singing. ;-)

[NorthernCitrusParrot]

i'd forgotten how good this is.

[TheCaleyman]

Brilliant just brilliant.

[UniversalCat]

Was that Frank Zappa on the trumpet?
