Jim absolutely spitting venom in this version. Utter, utter SEX! I need a cigarette…
Celebrate – Bologna, Italy, 1983
Yep, still on my “definitive” Celebrate search. This one’s a cracker! Loving Mel’s drums on it. Jim’s dog barks and the added “to a far away place” line after delivering “and run”. Charlie is sounding braw too. Curious bit of banter right at the start though…sounding a little fractious….

Glittering Minds – Trouser Press Magazine Article, June, 1983
Loving the stage decor! Lol. Loo roll, anyone? Jim sounds like Russell Mael????! Lol. To who? The Bryan Ferry thing, I can hear…esp. on “The Sainted Three” (Empires And Dance / Sons And Fascination / Sister Feelings Call) – or even the Bowie/Ferry blend I’d see others say… But RUSSELL MAEL??!
