Two songs making the purchase worthwhile as the B-side features the band at their very best: performing live!

Less lyrical bits and pieces, but the general, little psychedelic hinges are packed into the pumping thrive of the band. It just oozes the Liverpudlian finesse and comes across the homage of DeYoung’s `Hello Goodbye’.
