I was pretty pleased with the effects on the MU50, this tune was really my first real exploration into SysEx messages and things like that. Of course this isn't really relevant anymore, but at the time it was mind-blowing what you could do with Yamaha XG!
We just wanted to start with something funky, a sort of break to show off what we could do and wake everybody up before we launched into the plangent rock.
The first minute or so is cut off due to an over-taping error, if I ever get my hands on a 4-track recorder again we might get to hear the whole track!
