I've got the awful Manfred Mann version of NEH and the Italian DWTBO, as well as the Digginlillies More Than You'd Ever Know, but it seems there are quite a few more around. I'd love to hear some of them. Does anyone have an MP3 of Anna Haigis' NEH, or know where I could find it? And Smokie (is that the dreadful 70's band of the same name) have done ATLTK. I'd like to hear that. What other covers are there? Speaking of which - a gentle nudge in Darren's direction. When's the tribute album coming out???? I've heard Alison's version of Evidence, and it's brilliant!!! Can't wait to hear what else is on it.

Maybe I should refrain from doing ATLTK in my band. We are working on an acoustic version (just 2 acoustic guitars) slightly slower with a female singer singing it higher. Does that sound awful? Any suggestions of more uptempo Dels songs that might work in that format?

There aren't any tabs for DA songs around, and to be honest, most DA songs are boring to play on bass! I'm hoping for some Geddy Lee style bass lines on this next album (yeah right).

It's always baking hot in August when I'm in work When I get a day off (like today), it's thunder, lightning and rain but, most of all, it's because Cry To Be Found was released in this month! :>) Mind you, the football season starts again in August and Cardiff City are flying again!!!
