Not that I've actually listened to Aqualung, of course, but I have heard, through my own diabolical ways (Yahoo radio mostly) both versions of Wind Up. It is my understanding that the quad version is the prefered version. I honestly don't see why. I song is decent enough (it kind of falls apart at the end), but the quad version doesn't gel as well, the instruments all sound to clear and distant. And Ian sounds...whiny. 
To quote Mr. Horse: "No sir, I don't like it." But, hey, my opinion doesn't count for dirt round these parts! What do YOU think?

	Well this seems to have failed...maybe if I'd thought the title out instead of just mindlessly pressing "enter?"

	I voted Uh,uh,uh...Screw it the Wolfhounds because it sounds like a Hatfield and the North song title and also because The Wolfhounds were a jolly good band in their day. But really; No. 1 Edited by Man Erg - February 28 2007 at 09:12
	Do 'The Stanley' otherwise I'll thrash you with some rhubarb.

	He's not the kind you have to wind up on sundays. And I completely agree! the first, I like the original version of this the best. And I have been given the chance to hear this song live. I really love it!

	I like the word "quad". It makes me giggle.
	Here I'm shadowed by a dragon fig tree's fan ringed by ants and musing over man.
