An interesting remix, released as a tribute to Cozy Powell shortly after
his death. The track itself is a really nicely done edit of the album
track with a new drumming intro and a very long outro mixed in from Live
At The Brixton Academy.

This is just an edit of the Album Version, with some instrumental bits

Originally called "Hard Business," this wasn't quite one complete song
as much as several short sections written for the British TV series Frank
Stubbs Promotes. Eventually, all the pieces were mixed together to create
the Album Version years later. This is why the final version has so many
wildly opposing heavy and soft sections. You'll find these segments on
the TV series' first season.

Frank Stubbs' second series used this more optimistic piece, the way series
one used "Business." If you have the album, it's probably superfluous
to hunt these sections down.

This is an excellent live version from the Japan only Red Special album.
This live version has a lot of wonderful acoustic and electric guitar
instrumental bits. Brian sounds really great on vocals too. Highly recommended.

Brian wrote this song for the video game Rise II: Resurrection, the game
sequel to Rise Of The Robots. This is actually the original version of
the song. Compared to the album version, this version sounds like it needs
a good remastering. It's not bad and it does have some different mixing
and overdubs in places.
Cyborg (Rise II - Solo Instrumental
Version) 3:29

An instrumental compliment to the Main version, this is Brian and drummer
Taylor Hawkins rocking out. This isn't a straight instrumental of the
Main version, though; it is its own long guitar solo. It shifts gears
enough that it doesn't get too repetitive.

It's hard to tell the differences between this and the Main version. It
mostly sounds cleaner all around, but not as cleaned up as the Album Version
would be years later.
Cyborg (Rise II - Main Version
Instrumental Remix) 3:49

A straight instrumental of the Main Version Remix, there is an extra guitar
wail near the last verse. This is worth playing loud.

What was changed for the album wasn't much, but boy, does it make
a difference. There are some great effects, which really add to the song.
This is well worth hunting down.

This is the full song, but without the long silence and piano reprise
of "Business" which appears on the album version. Good to have as a proper
stand-alone track, but some easy editing of the album version will accomplish
the same thing.

On NSO The Rocky Horror Show cast recording, this is listed as "What
Ever Happened To Saturday Night." To make life more confusing, there's also
a shorter highlights CD of the same cast recording, which doesn't have this
song, but mistakenly titles the song "Eddie" as "Hot Patootie." If you want
this song, look for Brian's name on the sleeve, or try to find a copy of
Brian's Retro Rock Special EP. The song itself is a great cover of Meat
Loaf's signature piece from the play (and movie).

This slows the song right down to a ballad, similar in sound to the opening
of the Queen + Paul Rodgers versions recorded years later (see Return Of
The Champions). This version builds and doesn't rock out until the very
end. This is, frankly, a complete re-imaging of the song and is absolutely
stunning. |
