The original is obviously virtually
Unsurpassable, but I think the
Damned near did .
And this is the version written by band member Bryan MacLean ,yet I think Arthur and the producer enhanced on the vocal and adding the brass who had previously worked with the producer .
The melody is loosely taken based on Prokofiev's luitenant Kije suite which Sting also sampled from .
Boring mundane bit of trivia useless information .
Captain Sensibles real name is the same as mine ,apart from the middle one.
I wonder if I could sign into his bank account.

Im not really a huge fan of that Rock band The Bronx but saying that i highly recommend their El Mariachi Bronx 2 release. One of those albums where there's barely a bad song , just like the Self titled Specials lp. Also on high rotation is The Consumers ep All My Friends are Dead, brilliant , underrated, US Punk from 77 that deserves to be mentioned in the same breath as the Dead Boys Young, Loud n Snotty.

Stumbled across this the other day, which is two lads from a band singing in a pub in Leeds in the middle of a stag do.
Cracking cover.

I know I’m very late to the party but I’m only just really discovering Kate Bush!!
Only 15 -16 when she wrote some of early classics.

As much as I always liked the Manfreds, I still prefer the Dylan original!
I bought this 1999 Earth Band compilation years ago. Spot the error...

I'll have a stab, is it that the song wasn't strictly an Earth band track but from the era when they were simply Manfred Mann?

Wingy, yes, was aware that Alone Again Or was a Brian McClean song, or although apparently, it was Arther Lee who added the 'Or' to the title! Think it was the producer who was primarily responsible for the brass, across the lp, including 'Clark'. Had no idea about where the inspiration for the song melody had been taken from, though I still find the lp astounding in its appearance - could have been made fifty years ago or yesterday, it just seems to float in time (maan....)
For others, name two songs that this, eh, inspired (wingy, you know too much, so are excluded)

They supported Diamond Head on a tour in the 80’s. About the only time I went to a gig to see the support act. diamond head lived down to my expectations. I just loved some of Budgies song titles

Love the Strawbs. Saw Dave Cousins in the Acoustic Strawbs some years ago. Amazing voice and song writing.
