Hello Amanda and welcome to the board. Lindy and Robert very kindly answered my questions on 'Tallulah'. Could yopu let me know your thoughts. I've pasted my original questions/thoughts:

It seems as though 'Liberty Belle' and 'Lovers Lane' get all the critical praise yet I think it is a little neglected classic. 'Right Here', 'The house that Jack Kerouac Built', 'Clarke sisters', 'Bye Bye Pride'............they're all classic GB songs and the extra disc has some great tunes too. 'When People are dead' is one of my fave songs. Could Lindy and Robert shed any light on the lyricist of the aforementioned song. The only song that I was never too keen on was 'Cut it out'. It seemed like GB's attempt to be loose limbed and funky......I dunno it just seems unconvincing. I also love 'Doo wop in 'A' bam boom'.......I think Lindy/Amanda performed it live at Astoria in 1988.........should've been on 'American Graffiti' or something.
Can I also say hello to Lindy. I had a lenghty chat with you at an Edwyn Collins concert in 1989 and you were really sweet, even though I think you were on a rare night out. Good luck with all your political aspirations, Lindy. Knock em' dead (metaphorically speaking of course........I don't want you killing a shed load of Australian politicians.....

Yeah, I was at that gig and they did play that throwaway number.
