I remember Clint bringing the song into the rehearsal room. It's incredible that the song still gets such a good reception 30 years later. Happy birthday, Saturn 5.

30 years ago today Inspiral Carpets released their legendary single “Saturn 5” The song has become a fitting tribute to late drummer Craig Gill with the lyric “All hail the men who will walk up in heaven today”. Paul Moody’s NME review included.

I didn’t know Andy Rouke that well, first I worshipped him from afar as a member of the Smiths (my generations Beatles) then later I met him as an acquaintance & friend and he was ever generous, humble and talented. I’m so sad to hear of his passing and had a little cry earlier x

Listening back to #devilhopping has made me feel quite sad tonight. Was a difficult time personally & professionally for me. I love the album, but it’s brought back some sad memories which, combined with Craig no longer being here, has made it a melancholic experience for me.
