    The B side is a nice bit of fun from King & Lindup. A variation on the A-side, mostly instrumental with some familiar slap towards the end and some engineer knob twiddling, plus a mash up of the rap found on the A-side. Nicely recorded, as usual.

    "Freedom" itself was a fairly forgettable tune in itself, and it sounds like a germ of an idea that morphed into "There is A Dog" on MK's Influences LP from 1984.

    This 12" is for completists really, imo.
