i think there's a John Peel Session version too, but not on the ep of the same name

move along, nothing to see here
mr.biscuitdoughhead Posted - 11/04/2007 : 10:14:38
Oh yeah, and on One More Road... too. Is that the same version as the All My Ghosts EP? I hate how the one I have cuts out at the end.


You're the bees knees but so am I.
Ziggy Posted - 11/04/2007 : 10:01:22
Yeah there's a 'Pistolero Demo' version, at least that's what it's labelled.

But a different version appears on the 'All My Ghosts' EP.
mr.biscuitdoughhead Posted - 11/04/2007 : 09:53:54
there was a live version on Christmass, I think it was a Pistolero outtake too(?).

what CD was it on?
Ziggy Posted - 09/02/2007 : 12:25:02
He seems to play it in standard tuning live.
Superabounder Posted - 09/02/2007 : 11:23:15
man, it really does seem so much easier tuning down the guitar...do you think that is the way the man did it?



I'd rather be anywhere or doing anything

There are also minor changes in the lyrics:

"I`m just a monster not a proto human > I`m not a monster just a proto human". lol

Definately one of THE BEST Frank songs.
I've always wondered why it was just a b-side. It would have graced many a Catholic record.
