Great ambient track imo.

Or am I making that up? Never rated the song much on disc, but it made perfect sense when I saw the Orb live later that year.

To be honest neither band was at the height of their powers but we didn’t care because we were stoned 19-year olds ^H^H^H^H^H^H^H it was about the workers right. They played an interminably long version of Assassin (interminably long on the intro not the relatively banging bit) which put me off what is actually a pretty good track.

I wish The Orb had made more bangers and that this had been on UFOrb. They clearly had a knack for infectious dub-house ala Renegade Soundwave and Leftfield but put more ideas into it than them – or at least made it proggier (if that’s not the same thing).
