A viking ship appears on the horizon, a likeness of Alice Coltrane carved into its bow. Rare birds flock together to sing Francoise Hardy as soul hits. A sunset of blips and bleeps fills the air.

Mark Williams:

@Trouble - it's the same cut as the original 1975. You have a more recent pressing (not sure if it's a boot or not) by a label that is just putting songs that were never paired together originally. DJ culture reissue, in other words.

Regarding today's minimalist/abstract artwork- I'm seeing a hockey skirmish with the guy on the lower right heading down ice after bowling over the guy up top, who appears to also be a Pittsburgh Penguin. Go Jaromir! Also, may I have one more large coffee, please?...
  9:40am
Mark Williams:

also, I think it might've been a take on an earlier reggae song by Carlton & the Shoes, but I need to listen closely again to see if I'm right. Have a listen yourself: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F4M3b1UhIzc

I remember a PBS spot a few years ago that used the Clash's version of this to promote their weekly schedule (for the "Monday-Tuesday-Wednesday" bit). It was a little surreal to hear "Police On My Back" over clips of Arthur.
