The Jasmine Minks - Cold Heart

Not many people seem to remember the Jasmine Minks now, but in the '80s they were one of the brightest sparks in the Creation catalog, which is quite a compliment. I put their current forgotten status down to Alan McGee's peculiar fondness for "Cut Me Deep", which means that every couple years when a new Creation compilation comes out people who don't know the Minks only get to know that song instead of this one - which is far far better. I mean, listen to it, it's outstanding.

No idea what it's about though. And I probably don't want to know.
