Do you mean like more of the bonus track type material (on the black SOC CD)- stuff that was never really recorded that they played live? Did you ever see them perform pre SOC? It looks like you might just be old enough??
Re: Bonus tracks - On a first listening, I'm not so keen on Samaritan Woman (musically), but Dreamaway and Halleluja are a good complement to the album. I was never aware of ATF back then, but find the material great listening, as I later retrospectively got into the other prog rock groups to which they are often compared.

Trust me, Timey is old enough. The bad news is he is a month younger than me!

No I mean various live recordings made at early gigs.
His highness PeterB has them and as I recall they would be made available to anyone who wants to go into contractual agreements with a view to releasing.
No never saw them pre signs of change - thats why i want that early stuff

I think its time to repent of having written this! Musically its great - its just the singing I'm not too keen on...sorry!
Having been listening to Sounds quite a lot recently, I've only just noticed (prompted by an old comment I saw somewhere on the Forum) that Suspended Animation actually has far more in common with the old style than most of its contemporary songs of the Laser Love type. Nothing there is new to me - I've just realised it for the first time.
