- Excellent Boys Own mix, never released on CD except on this https://www.discogs.com/release/485231-Various-Big-Life-Sampler but clocks in at 9:00 (misses 20 seconds)

One of those records that sounded unique the first time you heard it and always brings back happy memories of the good old daysreferencing Barefoot In The Head (12", 45 RPM) BLR 28T
I find it difficult to choose between the original and the return to pacha mix. Love both.

Is anybody able to upload the instrumental mix to youtube please? Seems to only feature on this 12" and the promo 12". Thanks in advance.

Ahhh the long-sought-after instrumental mix. Unreal track. Worth its weight in vinyl.
Totally drab and pointless remix of a classic. . .- Edited 9 years ago

One of the best balearic tracks of all time. Perfection. I think The Shamen were influenced by this when they made "Hyperreal", which drags that background synth wash into slightly dubbier territory. Wonderful. referencing Barefoot In The Head (12", 45 RPM) BLR 28T
A balearic classic. Will certainly sound best heard on a summer beach at sunset, but the comfort of your own home in the chill of winter will do. The title and a lyrical tendency to messianic imagery are lifted from Brian W Aldiss' SF novel of the same name.
Classic balearic house. Makes me want to go down the beach every time I hear it.
Edited 23 years agoreferencing Barefoot In The Head (Cassette, Single) BLR28 MC
True baleric chillout house from the early 90's.
A Man Called Adam reveal a treat that is chilled and peaceful.
