As suggested by ORH

I 'finished' (like it'll ever be finished) the This Town Ain't Big Enough instrumental.   Jim offered to add a vocal and mighty fine it is too.  Thanks for the colab, great fun.

Yowser! What a cracker!  Such an intricate and difficult track to play - or even to dissect, this was one of my childhood favourites, just stunning. And the vocal: there's a lot of words to get into the right order, kudos here James.

All round fantastic cheesy greatness. I love it!

Excellent! I've always loved this song and you guys have done a great cover of it. I would image that it was a tricky vocal to do but it turned out great. Could be a bit louder in the mix though. I found it a bit hard to hear in some places. And there's a faint hint of a falsetto backing vocal that I would have liked to hear a bit louder.

I commented over on alonetone , didn't realise James had done the vox , bloody great cover , such a great live band , anyone watching the basement series on Sky Arts will have seen them do an amazing live set , they are far removed from their TOTP chart image days

Fucking brilliant. Love the original, and I love this. A tough one to take on musically and vocally, but you both nailed it. Really like the arrangement too. Fantastic!
