anyway, I haven't always liked their latest songs, but some of the tunes from the new record, posted as live performanaces, with this current line-up (Drozd out front) , are pretty interesting! Maybe the band will gell again, and the song writing, well that's another matter..
And yes, Drozd is missed on the kit. But, actually, I think the Kliph guy is coming into his own. On this tune apart from the tempo (which Im sure the band as a whole agreed on!!), he plays it in the original spirit (which we will recall was not played by Drozd anyway but by the previous guy-- R. English?)
Having seen FL live for the first time in 1989, I feel qualified to comment on this old tune played anew.
Well, I saw another recent version and this one was far better than that in all ways. While I was disappointed in that other version of this tune, this one was at least well done.
people can negative that comment all they want to- but goaliemans is correct! anyone else who is saying different are the fans who only know and like the new shit with wayne naked. Steven is great and he says this is for David- a good buddy of mine. new fans get over it.
