Track 12 - Eternal Legs.

I think that the synthi-vocals predate the Fairlight and are done analogue-stylee. gasp

That didn't errr.. go anywhere.

It sounds like it might be an actual song.

Is this a ZZ Top cover? Excited

by **The Call of the Wendigo** Sun 19 Apr 2020 - 20:02

This is more like it. Why didn't they make the rest of the album like this?

There's a lot of Pink Floyd in the Krautrock stuff of the 70s. I know they're Swiss, no YOU Shut up!

Oh, it worked better with the cold ending than the merge into the next track

Track 13 - Stanztrigger.

You could play this at an arty party and they'd all be going bananas to the beat! drum banana

I don't think this one's going anywhere.

This final track is the one I always used to think of when Stevie-Baby (remember him?) used to go on about his Zumba classes.

I don't even think it was on Youtube at that time and it frustrated my little soul so to know that he couldn't listen to it on his iPod when he did the gurning crayfish... bawl
