Just heard something I had NEVER heard before!
I've just played 'Life in the Jungle' from the 2017 Demon Music 11 CD boxset - working my way through them gradually, not necessarily in chronological order! - and was surprised to hear the short 'intro' to 'Spot the Ball', which wasn't on the single b-side or the 2013 Talking Elephant CD version.
It's just 4 seconds, approx, of Alan Jones doing some funky stuff on his bass and then the count in from either Bruce or Brian! Wow! I got a shock when this suddenly came on... so much so that I immediately pressed 'back' and listened again! Amazing that even after all these years, little surprises can still appear from time to time! I can only assume that said 'intro' was never intended to be heard, which is why we have never heard it until now. Strange - but nice - that it has been left on for this re-release.
Great tune as well... Nice and 'summery' !!!
