background
This was the first title for New Gold Dream (81,82,83,84), conceived during
jamming sessions at a Fife farmhouse in early 1982.
Charlie said "we pictured it as being something like
Kraftwerk, motorway music." In fact, the song does share some riffs with
Kraftwerk's Autobahn.
They even recorded the song onto the audio track of a Jean-Michel Jarre video.
"It was great watching him doing his concerts in China with "Festival Riff" coming
out" - Pet Walsh.
