Nice, everytime I hear this song, I see this version in my head off my old BBC B

[@Rickg6uzt]

Yep! Remember coding this on the BeeB B at school!

I was talking to someone about how mesmerized I was by this when I was maybe 9 or 10. Model B, my uncle brought one home from school at weekends, I remember the floppy disks.

This was on the school network, excellent. Look up coldtea that was another one but someone changed the bbc basic to print clod eat

I was the one that composed Cold Tea in 1979 and my friend Rob Cope wrote the program to be able to play it in around 1980-81. I think he also transcribed the other songs in this collection using the same program. Was an exciting journey of discovery!
