I love you purely for posting that.

This is a kickass instrumental, BTW.

I downloaded the Airwolf theme the other day too! Dreaming A City is a wonderful instrumental indeed!

Found this in my library the other day...



Published by Wales' y Lolfa press, and based around a 1991 TV doc on the same subject. Assume it's been discussed elsewhere, but haven't noticed any mention myself. Did Wire mention it?

Didn't Nicky Wire give JDB the book as a present (or the other way round)?

I seem to recall reading that in one of the pre-release track by track things.

Yes, James got it as a present, it was mentioned in some of the interviews.

I thought it sounded like a Sonic track when I first heard it! Sounded very Metropolis Zone-y.
