That was the beauty of the Mission, spontaneity. During a sound check at Bad Salzuflen in Germany during "Expedition 1" in 1986 , Craig began the riff to Tina Turner's ;'Nut bush City Limits' on his bass..the rest of the band joined in and we were treated to a one-off performance of it, with Craig on vocals. Lovely

Im sure he did something similar at the Manc Academy, same tour. He was new, mind. Perhaps he got his goff bands mixed up.
