No Rock And Roll Fun

WE HAVE LIFT-OFF: You can't knock the sweet, sweet joy of a free legal download from a truly great band, can you? Which is why we're dleighted to report that those awfully nice Clinic boys have got a copy of Vertical Take Off For Egypt as yours, for the asking, in MP3 at the moment. It's a taster for the forthcoming album, Winchester Cathedral, and world tour. We can't help recalling that fellow under-rated Merseysiders Barbel used to do a cover of Winchester Cathedral in their live set; we hope the same song turns up on the album. That's all we're saying. If it doesn't, we may be forced to go and shout at any or all of these fine venues:
