So is the version of "Suffocate" on the US vinyl from the Mike Read Session or am I confused?


No, the session version is separate from the studio versions (below) being recorded specifically for that radio session. It is similar to version #1 below. I have always believed was for Richard Skinner's show not Mike Read, but I may be wrong?

There are two studio versions of the song:

1. Normal band version, initially on the US release of Kilimanjaro, but also on the 'You Disappear From View' 7" single.

2. Suffocate (Baroque version) is the second studio version. Basically the same with the addition of a orchestral strings arrangement to it. This first appeared on the 12" version of the 'You Disappear From View' single.
