Roving reporter Jo Neary returns to Song by Song to revisit this track from Swordfishtrombones\\u2026 and to apologise for her own presence. Meanwhile back in the studio Sam and Martin look at the similarities between this live performance and the original, the lack of priority given to the lyrics, and the shift in recording quality in this album.
