EDIT: just searched on yt and apparently Cool Confusion is the chapter selection tune. I'm almost certain there was another instrumental on it that wasn't a song we've heard though.

That's the one!

Re: Rat Patrol 2LP acetate
I can't remember where I posted this, but a ton of their songs around that time seem to built around little grooves/jams
Radio Clash
RAD
Long Time Jerk
FNBiL
Casbah
Atom Tan
Straight to Hell
Ghetto Defendant
etc
How many of these even have a bridge? Casbah, sort of?
In fact, how many songs on Combat Rock have a bridge at all?

You've got the cut of jib, at least
Wiggle, wiggle, wiggle like a bowl of soup
Wiggle, wiggle, wiggle like a rolling hoop
Wiggle, wiggle, wiggle like a ton of lead
Wiggle - you can raise the dead

Fulham Connection might be the only one I can think of that has a definite bridge "now the credits, they must roll through"Inder wrote: ↑19 May 2021, 4:39pmI can't remember where I posted this, but a ton of their songs around that time seem to built around little grooves/jams

The outro to Inoculated City is kind of an extended bridge in a sense, but it doesn't connect back to the body of the song, so perhaps not.

This has been at the forefront of my mind for a while now. I'm hoping to incorporate this approach into my own work.Inder wrote: ↑19 May 2021, 4:39pmI can't remember where I posted this, but a ton of their songs around that time seem to built around little grooves/jams

I'm hoping to get get into the spliff bunker with this thing real soon. I can only imagine it being even better with smoke in the room.

I wouldn’t call it a favorite, but I never hated it like so many on here.

I think it's the best of the CR b-sides if that means anything (it does not mean much).
Look, you have to establish context for these things. And I maintain that unless you appreciate the Fall of Constantinople, the Great Fire of London, and Mickey Mantle's fatalist alcoholism, live Freddy makes no sense. If you want to half-ass it, fine, go call Simon Schama to do the appendix.

Re: Rat Patrol 2LP acetate
Damning with faint praise indeed.
I might like Long Time Jerk more? Maybe? Not sure.
