I was in a massive Syd phase when this came out. Bought this on a whim because Julian looked a bit ‘son of…’ It’s still an incredible album

I guess so. Based on the Beeb’s attitude to archive tapes back then it wouldn’t surprise me!

The edit, as I recall, was removing the instrumental section and going straight to the key change. I played it all the time as a kid. Got my big sis to tape her copy of Pisces and I couldn’t understand what this ‘new’ “tuh, tuh-tuh-tuh…” section was!

Really enjoyed this episode. Thanks both! Frustratingly, back in the 70s I used to record Monkees episodes with a tape recorder in front of the tv (all long lost). There was an incredible version of Pleasant Valley Sunday hacked to pieces (by the Beeb?) The key change was edited much earlier.

A great interview. Geoff comes across as such a top man - and clearly a drummer’s drummer. A shame he’s been treated so shoddily and brushed under the carpet for so long (not dissimilar to Pete Best!)

So Teatley (obviously, a very good thing 🫖)
