This ones a real gem, Steve Treatments second single and for me his best. Once you start playing these tracks you will struggle to get them out of your mind, especially the b-side "Step Inside a worn out shoe", you will be singing this all the time.Steve Treatment was a massive Marc Bolan and T Rex fan and you can hear the influence on both tracks on this single.
I was a little upset when I recorded this as I had placed the single in a clear plastic sleeve to protect the cover, and when i went to take the cover out to scan it, I found it had stuck to the plastic, so therefore I
had to scan in the sleeve, hence the not so brilliant scan. if anyone has a better scan I will replace them. Oh well it's the music that counts so enjoy.More etching trivia on this one. On a-side: it says "I wish I was a spaceman" and on the b-side: "But I'm a spaceman". Don't know what that's about, but I do like finding those little messages.
