This is a great song. It could have been included on the Avalon album. This song was played at a funeral to a young man being victim to a racist murder; "Holmlia drapet", in Oslo, Norway, some years ago...

There's a great version of More Than This by Blondie on You Tube. Nice guitars and vocals. Worth a listen.

I agree completly. I love the drum beat as well as the soprano-sax . I once met the sax-man. His name is Iain Ballamy and is from Bristol. Brilliant artist, composer and human being..

http://www.ballamy.com/

"His distinctive saxophone voice can be heard in his improvisations for the BBC Radio 4 play 'Signal to Noise' by Neil Gaiman and Dave McKean, the movie 'Legend' and a documentary 'Joseph Losey - the Man with Four Names'.
Ballamy recently scored the award winning film Mirrormask directed by Dave McKean for the Jim Henson company."

No, no, no! Very poor track. Middle of the road predictability. I'm sure Gilmour must have regretted his involvement.

It did start life during the avalon sessions when it was called circles, as this isn't much different to the released version there must be a possibility of Manzanera being on it though not Mackay.
