Rather heartening how "Overkill" has become the band's most famous hit in recent years.

That sucks. Business As Usual was the first album I ever bought with my own money. In many ways my first favorite band.
RIP, Greg.

It's annoying that this guy is just being reported as the flautist, cos he was also the sax player on stuff like Overkill and Who Can It Be Now.

and he wrote and sang "Helpless Automaton", one of my favorite deep cuts from Business As Usual.

yeah i was gonna say, the "Who Can It Be Now" sax is probably as famous as the "Down Under" flute

Btw. I consider "Overkill" to be their best song. "Down Under" was fun and all, but maybe too much of a novelty. "Overkill" was an excellent pop song, partly also thanks to the wonderful sax theme by Ham.
