David Bowie ‘Sue (Or In A Season Of Crime)’ 45 - I remember the thrill of hearing this on Freakzone just before it came out. Eight years on it still sends a shiver down my spine in its not-quite-rock-not-quite-big-band-jazz-but-both-of-those-things-and-more kind of way. But I still think Robert Wyatt deserves a co-write credit.


Robert Wyatt may not have got a co-write credit but the first name on the credits (in alphabetical order) is Paul Bateman, a former work colleague of mine. He was part of a duo called Plastic Soul and the bassline is 'borrowed' from a song of theirs. Still can't quite get my head round that. I expect it was even more mind-blowing for him.
