I remember i heard when love breaks down and was sold right then and there, went to the then record town and grabbed a copy, and all rest as well. Is the music from this show available? Tu

[@KRAZEEIZATION]

One of the best songs ever. Steve McQueen needs a box set release right now.

[@rooftopcat1785]

Agreed.

I have been a fan since ca. 2013-2014, having first heard Lions in my Own Garden (Exit Someone) on a compilation, but when I finally heard Bonny, via The Steve McQueen album it was like a bolt out of the blue. A far, far distant memory that I wasn’t even aware existed was completely unlocked as soon as I heard the opening jangle to that song and when the chorus came in I pulled at my hair in astonishment. I used to hear it on the radio in the car with my mom driving me to preschool or to my grandparents house a few towns over. Ca. 1986-87. NYC area. I recognized it from the first note. I hadn’t been thinking about it in all that time, just totally buried deep down and I knew right then that this band was something really special and I couldn’t be happier to have had that moment of discovery. I’ve put quite a few people onto the Sprouts, insisting they give this album a listen.

Great live version of one of my absolute favorite songs. They were wonderful, so sad they don't make music anymore.

[@marioduran7913]

Monday August 4th 2024 and sounds fantastic!! I listening for the 1st time in 1990

[@philgame9287]

Bonjour, faut écouter tous leurs albums 😮

[@fullgas1372]

Truly beautiful. The best song they ever did. The opening 20 seconds are like a time warp back 40 years. I count the minutes and the seconds too…

[@PaulJames-p1z]

Possibly my favourite song of all time!?

[@margaritisschoinas5664]

The absolute Sprout anthem to me.

[@margaritisschoinas5664]

"Missed chances and the same regrets" - which sums it up for me . Hope all of you people have managed better.

Paddy Mac Aloon est un pur génie...Pefab Sprout a été le plus grand groupe pop des années 80 et 90......Leur musique m'a sauvé...

[@toslinked]

When this album dropped in the eighties it was unbelievable. a perfect record.
