Hi. I was hoping someone could give me some information. The song which first turned me into a Steve Harley fan was Lay Me Down which was the B side of the Here Comes The Sun single. I still have the single but like millions of other people, I don't have a record player anymore. I've searched all the CDs I can find for the song as an extra track as I believe it was never on an albumn (LP). What I want to know is, is it available on CD or any other media anywhere.
Thanks
Stephanie

I'd forgotten all about this song. 'Back in the day' I was always astounded at the quality of song Steve would put on the B sides. What a treasure - thanks for reminding me about it and thanks for the link Jimbo.

you know what all those old 'b' sides would make a cracking album if they were re-mastered,and put together,maybe include heartbeat like thunder,I cant even touch you,even the theme from babbacombe lee would sit nice.keep us all happy,along with the possible 'live' releases until november. B)
