By the way, I seem to remember the great Mr. Workman plays guitar on this track?

| It's not good english isn't it? (used it for "appeared") Oh well... If there were no translation mistakes, there wouldn't be neither a great Frank Black song called "New House of the pope" ("Newcastle of the pope" sounds weaker but is the exact name of the wine). |

I was under the impression it was a cover, but it may be his. Or it may be something in the public domain that he has put his own spin on. My bad.....maybe. I swear he said he learned it from a Burl Ives record.
Sleuths, do your investigating. I've added my 2 cents.

I've read it's Burl Ives, too. With a Frank Black twist, maybe. |

Confirmed. Lyle's on about half of the two-disc set, and he not only played guitar, he is the arranger on the sessions as well.
He's writing with Sting now, so I hear.

Well, I've never seen the disc Oddballs anywhere, but I didn't care as I had all the b sides on the different singles.
I know a live version and an accoustic version of the song jumping beans. Not a real rock version with Lyle Workman doing his amazing solo.
I the version on Oddballs of that kind? |

A bit, it certainly rocks, but if it's real rock?
Don't know, I always thought it was one of the tracks
you can hear Frank moving from his old style on TOTY to DITS

| Well, I didn't want to bother everybody with my obsession on that song. If there IS a studio full band version, no worry, I just got to find "Oddballs", the phantom album. It's just strange that song appeared on it without being a b-side. |

Wow, thanks a lot, Froggy, I never heard that before. I have The Kitchen Tapes version with Joey on vinyl (somebody posted that here before, I believe, or at least it sounds like it, I haven't listened to any of my vinyl records in a good few years), and an acoustic version from Rev 105 Radio which was posted before. Thanks again!

I thought MAN OF STEEL was produced by Nick Vincent - post Cult of Ray.
Anyway another FB/EDF collaboration would be amazing.

If my maths is correct: there are 27 new BMI listings [so far] plus No.28 DIRTY OLD TOWN, a cover.
If FASTMAN-RAIDERMAN is supposedly 27-tracks total, which one misses out?
Or have I got this all wrong?
