I love that version, too. Has a faintly metallic sheen to it which gives the performance an extra edge.

Didn't we determine, some time back, that it's "live" but actually recorded at a soundcheck?

Ah, for the days when there were great Verlaine b-sides floating around...

I have that on a blue vinyl 12"...but I don't think my copy is on "A Town Called Walker"--mine might be an oddball "The Funniest Thing"/"One Time at Sundown" (London version) on one side with the long MM on the B.  And it is glorious.
