can someone link me to the extricate album or at least the littlest rebel/extricate

unfortuntetly i don't have that or i'd up it in return

fantastic life is a brilliant song

Got eighteen months for espionage
Too much brandy for breakfast
And people tend to let you down
It's a swine.
Fantastic life


Dole penicillin to eastern ching plague-ridden
And one thing I have found
What you cast out will hit back
And a man will find he has to deny his
Fantastic life


Ours is not to look back
Ours is to continue the crack


Met a 54 year old dustbin man
And '48 he'd been in Jerusalem
Sold surplus oil to Arab fighters
For M-cocktails to burn Jewish terrorists
What a turn-up!
Fantastic life


Style's too easy to buy nowadays
And there's interference with the mail
And you just can't get out the words
Some people think if they had a job they'd be well
Now!
A fantastic lie!


The Siberian mushroom Santa
Was in fact Rasputin's brother
And he didst walk round Whitechapel
To further the religion of forgiven sin murder
Fantastic lie!


No lie, friend called David
He said he had a barney on Corporation Street
He said he told the policeman what he really thought
But knowing him I don't believe that crap
A Fantastic lie


And I just thought I'd tell you
And I just thought I'd tell you
About fantastic life


And I just thought I'd tell you
Some fantastic lies


And I just thought I'd tell you
And I just thought I'd tell you


I walked right (West) round Wakefield Jail
A fantastic life
And I just thought I'd tell you
And I just thought I'd tell you

Extricate and Fall in a Hole (i think thats the one Fantastic Life is from) will probably be on Soulseek.

fantastic life is from room to live aswell.

yeah my slsk's beyond the wrong port no. and cant fix it

ditto my soulseek. the version of room to live i have doesn't have fantastic life, and neither does my version of slates, and i don't see the point of buying hip priests and kamerads

I fucking love that song.

Most of my Fall is on vinyl, including Extricate. Any requests for post-Middle Class Revolt, however, and I'm more likely to have it on CD.

A great song, it's on the CD re-release of Slates too.

There's something about the way he seems to say "fantastic" in about three different ways during that song. Sheer brilliance.

I can understand that, but there's a live version of Who Makes the Nazis on it which is far better than the ones on Hex and even the Peel session. It's probably on something else besides Hip Priests... but if not, it's almost worth the asking price just for that. "Benny's cobweb eyes", indeed.

Is that on some CD or other? Doesn't appear on my vinyl copy.

i have the 10", although i might buy the CD just for fantastic life

It's on the cassette version I've got, so I reckon it will be on the CD.

Just checked. It is. Here's the tracklisting:

01. Lie Dream Of A Casino Soul 3:09
02. The Classical 5:17
03. Fortress 1:20
04. Look, Know 4:48
05. Hip Priest 7:35
06. Room To Live 4:14
07. Mere Pseud Mag. Ed. (live St Gallen 1983) 5:42
08. Hard Life In Country 6:03
09. I'm Into C.B. 6:32
10. Fantastic Life 5:19
11. Who Makes The Nazis? (live Hammersmith Palais, London 25 March 1982) 6:57
12. Just Step Sideways (live Jenkinson's, Brighton 2 May 1982) 3:22
13. Jawbone And The Air-Rifle (live unknown venue) 4:03
14. And This Day (live Hammersmith Palais, London 25 March 1982) 15:20


I'd go for this instead, for Fantastic Life and the live versh of WMtN. Especially if you have the Slates 10".
