Awesome song from a great album. I like the longer version of Outdoor Miner from the same reissue also.

@grecian300 it's actually a later track put on the reissues of CHAIRS MISSING - Wire had a number of fully recorded non-album tracks during and after 154, and reissuers have tacked them onto various albums.

Recently sampled by Massive Attack on their song entitled, uh, 'Wire'. Hope the boys got a payoff.

I've had the vinyl of Chairs Missing for years but've never heard this.....interesting. It sounds like something by Faust almost..

Thank you.

[ajgree6]

I know an other version, but do love this one as much as in more.

Uf, what a song for God's sake. It still makes me shiver.
