Might as well start a thread. Partially because I had the chance to talk to him.

Looking forward to hearing it, i'm still kicking myself for not going to his last solo tour in 2003.
The history of his cover of Never Turn Your Back On Mother Earth is interesting IMO. Originally it came out as an official DM flexi for fans, they/he even played it on the Masses tour a dozen-or-so times in the hallowed Martin-Does-a-Bit-of-Singing spot; with Alan(?) on backing.

..but then it ended up on Counterfeit EP credited to him alone.
