My Beatles.......Thats what "The Set" mean to me........people laugh, but go listen to them, 95% of the stuff they did was brilliant...oh........ and they did an album called Dante's Casino!!!

@cloonmore Golden Brown is nothing like B-I-D and B-I-D is nothing like Golden Brown. They both have harpsichords. That does not mean there is any similarity between the songs. Both great songs.

Oh wow. I stand (or sit) totally corrected!

You mean "Golden Brown" is very "B-I-D."

Dear 'schmiebl' Thanks for reply, yes the band did storm off, my wife was with me at the time and remembers it well! We met up backstage afterwards and I've still got the photos, what a good-looking bunch we all were back then! I saw MS complete a set a couple of times before in Manchester, so no hard feelings.

This is my all time favorite song.
Even when they change key towards the end, like some Eurovision band out of ideas, it just works.

I saw them a the Venue ,Victoria circa 1981. The most underrated band ever. The world demands a reunion now.
Tomorrow will be too long.......
