Maybe I've still got a cold and am a bit deaf, but I didn't really pick up on Chris's tinkering at the end of It's A Sin. During the concert itself it was extremely noticable. Is it just me??

It's been edited out. :?

It was almost like a reprise at the end and lasted for almost a minute, but it sounds like it's been completely removed.

Is it edited so that it is seperate tracks? I have a 128kbps MP3 I captured off the streaming broadcast.

And that's definately not the version of It's a sin that Chris played on the night!

cheers trunkguy; i recorded the show from the r2 website, but it sounded rather tiny; your download sounds much better - several hats off!

That's what I thought, the extra keyboard stuff was done during the main track wasn't it, not just a reprise at the end? Or is my memory failing me??

Hmmmmm difficult to say....... I remember the tune very well cos I was humming it all the way home.....then at Hammersmith he played a couple of bars of it in the middle but no more........and ever since it's been going round and round my head!

Maybe it was a reprise......

Anyway it sounded great on the radio! A right old party. I wonder what all the die hard Radio 2 listeners made of it? No doubt there will be lots of complaints.

'Dear BBC.....

As usual on a Saturday evening, I was cuddled up with my, lets say, 'friend', to listen to an evening of show tunes and Mantovani, only to have the entire evening spoiled by something, my young 'friend' tells me is called 'disco'.

If i wanted to spend an evening listening to such a racket, I'd have chosen to tune into that other BBC station called 1'.

Please refund my licence fee immediately. However, I must say my 'friend' enjoyed it immensly'.

Kind regard
