    TStill and again, fantastic to listen to. Tom, just wondering, because most of the single performances, Danny played a strat type, was this recorded on a Gibson Les Paul? By the sound of things I think so, but it would be nice of you to confirm. Thank you.

    Wonderful making this freely available. The best recording by a country mile: Guinness worked with Eliot on the Cocktail Party and many other things and understands the poem and poetry in general far better than the miserable and monotonous Jeremy Irons. The Quartets are quartets in the sense that they use themes and develo them somewhat in the manner of Beethoven's late quartets and like his music, need to be read with the EARS not the eyes! These poems make much more sense if you ditch the texts and let the music work...

    This is one of those songs that each individual listener can interpret for themselves. What you find in it depends on what’s in you. There aren’t many such songs, but Bob Dylan’s Changing Of The Guard is another of the small number.

      As a Gen X'er in his late 50's, I remember trying to be cool, cynical and sussed during the 80's. I wish I'd have embraced it more. It was an amazing time to be young. Some of the music was brilliant, and so were Everton.

    I have some blurry memories from this summer. I was 7 when this came out, but remember my uncle buying me Lets Dance by David Bowie and Baby Jane by Rod Stewart in 1983, and also remember the very hot weather in the school holidays. War Baby was part of this soundtrack to the first summer i was aware of pop music. Such a classic year for uk pop music, Blancmange-Blind Vision, Wherever I Lay My Hat- Paul Young, along with some classic USA stuff, Michael Jackson - Wanna Be Startin, Flashdance - Irene Cara in between. Moonlight Shadow by Mike Oldfield.
