I would expect no less from XTC. I love the keyboard vamp. it's like they're just pressing down all the keys next to each other in a row with a cool reverb pedal going.
I'd actually never heard this version until doing my research. I think she sounds so good on it.

Dylan at Budokan is phenomenal! - the performance, and, recording. I have no idea why rocknerds/Dylan-gatekeepers were so dismissive of it at the time.

A young woman took me to see Mink DeVille in NYC, I'm thinking 1985. Not long thereafter they broke up. She & I stayed together & she later became my wife. It was a good show!
