The Attack

Decent bit of guitar playing. Someone, who's pretty good too, giving the old drums a bit of a work out.

Not a musician. But I do like to listen to that song. Preferably loud and in darkness.

Cheers

It's a fantastic song, so atmospheric, haunting, maybe one of NMA's best acoustic track. My favourite song on NRFTWi, think.

Agreed.

My response might belong on another thread here. But can anyone recall the last time it was played 'live?

Drumming is great on "Legend"!
Also the bass line of "I did nothing wrong" is pretty good!

The bass in "Deserters" is ridiculously good from start to finish..it's got similarities with "Running in the rain"..but kind of an updated hybrid version with abit of Nelsons influence from "island" (one of his finest moments)...at the same time it has Ceri's authentic stamp on it which has been firmly displayed all over this album with the bass heavy mix.

The bass in "Deserters" and "Do you really want to go there?" is also influenced by Nelson's playing in "Disappeared", it seems.
