Because for more than 30 years Adam has been the musical voice that's meant the most to me. Especially any time he reinterprets his old songs like this, I want to hear him all over again.
Favorite track: Boocat Leah (punk version).
I don't believe the light you've shone is gone
It's shining somewhere
I can't believe the love you gave's not saved
It's shining somewhere
I recognise the myriad sighs in the songs
You're singing to me
But I don't believe the light you've shone is gone
It's shining somewhere
I don't believe the light you've shone is gone
It's shining somewhere
I can't believe the love you gave is not safe
It's shining somewhere
I can't react to every heartfelt plea
This song makes me sad
But I don't believe the light you've shone is gone
It's shining somewhere
Come up and see me
We'll dance in the mud
Faking I'm happy
As I reach for your gun
Don't pass out
You're on top of it all
Boocat Leah
Come up and see me
We'll speak double dutch
In a mess of our making
I wait for your touch
Don't crash out
You're the belle of the ball
Boocat Leah
Don't believe what everyone's saying
Disconnect the lines that they're making
Cos everything goes slow
When you dance on the floor
Boocat Leah
Come up and see me
I won't leave you for dead
As everything empties
From inside your head
Just make out
That you're in love with it all
Boocat Leah
Come up and see me
We'll speak double dutch
In a mess of our making
I wait for your touch
Don't crash out
You're the belle of the ball
Boocat Leah
Don't believe what everyone's saying
Contradict the lies that they're faking
Cos everything's slo-mo
When you dance on the floor

I first heard Swervedriver when this demo of Son Of Mustang Ford was included on the Creation Tape with Select magazine in 92. It blew me away and I started seeking out whatever vinyl/cds I could get my hands on. I joined their fan club getting the little magazines that sometimes included lyrics. I couldn’t believe my luck when a few months later Swervedriver announced they were playing in nearby Worthing at the Factory club. I was there with a handful of mates totally spellbound. I love this stephendibble

You know a band is special when they can release a collection of B-sides & rarities & it sounds like a Greatest Hits.
Maëlstrom & the Hitcher are two of the finest songs I've ever heard. mrpaullandini

Good stuff, and the demo is right up there with the final product. Just a touch different and a bit brighter of a mix, both conveying slightly different moods with the same song as a result. scarredartist
