The great thing about Cargo is that I felt there was no sort of pretensions or expectations with the album's sound. It was a continuation, and fine-tuning of Business As Usual. It could be that I may have been young at the time when it came out, but listening to it as an adult, I can't hear anything but pitch-perfect pop hooks that flowed naturally....
After I purchased Business As Usual, I got the Overkill single for my Dad for his birthday (I was only 11.) He liked it. Then, we said, "Hey! Why don't we play side 2!" Well, the side 2 of my Overkill was Until the Money Runs Out. That song lasted one playing before my Dad said no more. I mean, I guess you could call it an instrumental, with a chorus, but when they only repeat that one line two dozen times in a row, it grated on my father's already short nerves.
But, hey. I liked it!
My version is only slightly different than the re-release. I hate when they include live tracks on studio albums. So, I pulled those off. I tweaked the track listing a bit and made that killer cover...
Have fun...
