I discovered this little tune this evening, in some of the Fruitlegs.... and it's great. All I have is a proper studio version because they played it only 15 times during JT tour, and those are weak recordings. What do you guys think about this song? Is it a good addition to the show or more a filler like they later did with songs like Sattelite Of Love?

Edit: It's called Springhill Mining Disaster, not Mine.

Did hear some live stuff but I do not have a studio recording. Nice tune though.

Ah funny, I downloaded the song together with something called Joshua Tree Demo's or so... with little snippets and rehearsals like People Get Ready.

This is a longer version. Thanks Gerard.
