Err, there wasn't much more information at that link, unless I missed it... So, betraying my ignorance entirely, what are Body Politic and Driver? Versions of other songs? Aborted songs? Worth tracking down?

Sorry, got off the Lucretia train there...I always thought it was AE singing, for my tupennyworth...

Body Polotic is basically Fix with a slightly different bassline (in one place).

Driver is a song that never made it to anything although there is a instrumental of it called Candle floating around. Some of the lyrics turned up in Heartland :

"Lay me down the long white line,
Leave the sirens far behind me..."

Thank you! I guess Body Politics is not that much worth tracking down, then, but re: Driver - is it actually any good? I'm not a completist by any means, but I find these odds and ends (like Burn it Down) quite interesting...

"Driver" is worth tracking down. It's got the great lines:
"Life is short and life is cruel
But we have beer and we have fuel
We are never coming down "

"Body Politic" is a rough base line for fix with Craig Adams (?) mumbling an incatation over it. Dan transcribed somewhere else on HL.

Heh, after my last post added these lines into my sig!

I have a differerent version of Body Polotic then. My one is off the Hard Reign/Acoustics albums. It is just a basic demo of Fix. The other one is NOT worth tracking down apart from trainspotter value. Isn't Craig reciting the Necronomicon or something?

Driver is really quite good. The version known as Candle is pretty good as well with a nice driving bassline in it. Definately worth tracking down. You may be able to get a copy of it. Possibly. But only for a very short time. http://myweb.tiscali.co.uk/cellthree/05 ... Driver.mp3

Thanks very much for that - unfortunately at work I have an unbelievably archaic computer, with no CD-R and a tiny modem, and I couldn't save it to anything big enough. I can do so when I go home on Thursday morning - any chance it could be there at about 11 a.m.? If not, don't worry, and thanks for trying anyway!
