I missed Crush. Okay, Scott, since you played Timebox last week, I stumbled on the Ollie Halsall solo record. I am curious about one song "Stepping Out". It was also recorded by Kevin Ayers, but I cannot find an MP3 of it anywhere on the nets. It seems to be from a record a lot of people hated. I'm just interested in hearing it because the words in Ollie's version are completely different than the Ayers version. (they're much nicer, actually)

The moon passes in front of the sun
And no one hears it

Ever so briefly
