      This track was not on the original album though. Only the remastered cd edition from 2005 as a bonus track. It wasn't even on the cd version I had(before 2005).

    Ottimo singolo mai comparso su album in studio Solamente in una raccolta antologica intitolata 68/71 E più recentemente inserito sulle ristampe CD di The least se can do Is wave to each Other

      It was also on the Charisma VDGG compilation Repeat Performance (my introduction to the band) that also has a rare version of W that I can never find on UA-cam.

    I saw VDGG at the Lyceum on the Strand London about 1969/70? The support band were new comers by the name of Genesis.

    It's amazing how goth these guys sounded for 1970. Peter Hammill's vocals could fit right in Bauhaus.

      Reminds me of Bowie

      mike profo - Exactly! Bowie’s “The Man Who Sold the World” era... seems to echo what VDGG were doing around the same time.

    Trying to work out which is my favourite track from this album. But they are all too damn good.

    Ottimo pezzo ma tengo a precisare che il brano non fa parte dell'album originale cioè The Least we Can Do Is wave to each other ma è presente in una raccolta antologica VDGG 68/71

    There is another wonderful piece, by David Tibet's Current 93, inspired by the same theme: it's The Dissolution Of 'The Boat Millions Of Years' (included in the album Black Ships Ate the Sky). I often wonder whether Current 93 took notice of this song, even because of David Tibet's appreciation of early progressive bands (like Comus). And vice versa wheter Peter Hammill has ever be informed about the song by Current 93.

      Nor on mine (UK release).....all those years ago. Perhaps it should have been?! I've no idea where this track appeared - maybe on a single with "Theme One" Perhaps it should have been?!

      It came from the same recording sessions but didn't make it on the LP. Pretty sure it was the B side to Refugees single.
