Yeah, though I think Gil Norton also added some overdubs at Blackwing
in London. And maybe the vocals were worked on there, too.

But the demo definitely has the same "feel".

Boy, what a great EP that was. I still remember how I first heard it
on a late night Northern Germany radio program (Alan Bangs was the
host and usually played cool new stuff from England).

Those were the days...
