Tracks discussed include: In the night, Opportunities, It’s a sin, Always on my mind / In my house, I’m not scared.

Greetings,

Thanks for sharing. Very interesting. He sounds like a good, level-headed bloke.

It's fascinating to hear about how/when the Always On My Mind remix and I'm Not Scared were mixed, and to then reflect upon how they would evolve even further from there to form a third of the Introspective album.

Retro.

I find it amusing that Neil would say 'we don't really do house', then a few short months later bring out Introspective, one of the biggest house records of that time! Bit of a quick turnaround .. maybe he was taken out of context.
