Yes - Concrete Blonde's verison is heartbreaking. > Come to think of it I think the Four Tops did a better "Walk Away Renee" too... Nope, can't agree here. "Find The River" is prettier and sweeter than "Nightswimming", too. As for most beautiful Scott song, I nominate "Just Gone". Progwise, no contest for me: "Mad Man Moon" from A TRICK OF THE TAIL.

I'm really looking forward to the promised new stuff on all sorts of fronts from him next year.

Thank You - Tori Amos Thank You - Duran Duran and if I really wanna throw something mainstream out there, nothing makes me weep like a baby more than "Lucky Man" by the Verve.

Very beautiful, Bob. Thanks for reminding me about that one - I actually gave it a spin not too long ago. Jeez..the Scott list is long!
