Blimey - the one that got away! A couple of monitor mix nuggets from the Exposure Power Trio of Collins, Fripp & Wetton. To these ears, the descending theme sketched out by the terrific trio is one that hasn't been subsequently recycled. Yet another "oh,what if" moment which you'll enjoy hearing them rip it up, tear it down and almost every other cliche in the rock writer's lexicon - up to and including "smokin'"
This track is available for download as part of a bumper collection of Mr Stormy's Monday Selections Volume Three - Yes, his third year of treasures from the murky, cavernous DGM archives, torch in hand, fedora upon his head.

Another Stormy Selection Gem with Fab-Foot-Phil.
This is another gem for us Exposure era completists. This one seems to have a bit different flavor to it which makes it a great addition to the nice little collection of Exposure outakes that Mr. Mundy has given us through his selections.And Phil Collins- Here’s a guy who, if you rolled back the clock to 1976 or so, you would have sufficient respect for as a great drummer more than filling his role in a great prog rock band.

The feeling is therefore that this didn´t fit at this time. Phil was all into jazz fusion during 1977 because of his extraordinary work with Brand X. The 19...

The 1968 version of Fripp with this killer combo would however be interesting.
