Not sure. I thought it was more about a man who needs cash (christmas is coming) and "don't ask questions" to do every job he is offered - and this job
is to unload some trucks without knowing what exactly it is or if it all is legal or not?

I think I was just thinking of an old episode from The Sweeney where Regan went undercover as a lorry driver.  Quite a few  similarities in that episode to the lyrics to the song - wonder if MK ever watched The Sweeney?

Can someone explain me what is exactly TO HAUL AWAY?

And... I think perhaps he says:

"so haul away
haul away for home"

instead of "...for me..."

What do you think?

welcome Neville Sherman.

Very few songs performed live by Mark did not end on records or even on the album :

I won't count early DS stuff.

- Twisting By The Pool : EP
- ITILYTM  : Knebworth album
- Long Highway : CD single (nearly 10 years after being first performed live)
- Gravy Train : CD single
- Pyroman : only unreleased one.

So I guess that most of these newbies will at least end as digital bonus track if not kept for the main album.

"Come with me to Barbary" - a little bit of Wikipedia:

The Barbary Corsairs, sometimes called Ottoman Corsairs or Barbary Pirates, were pirates and privateers who operated from North Africa, based primarily in the ports of Tunis, Tripoli and Algiers. This area was known in Europe as the Barbary Coast, a term derived from the name of its Berber inhabitants. Their predation extended throughout the Mediterranean, south along West Africa's Atlantic seaboard and even South America,[1] and into the North Atlantic as far north as Iceland, but they primarily operated in the western Mediterranean. In addition to seizing ships, they engaged in Razzias, raids on European coastal towns and villages, mainly in Italy, France, Spain, and Portugal, but also in England, Scotland, the Netherlands, Ireland, and as far away as Iceland.

I am a berber or (Kabyle) and we were taught in school the history of the Ottoman fleet which reigns on the Mediterranean Sea to the Atlantic ... It's funny, at least even if Mark will never pass by there at least he speaks of the region!

I just ask Guy about this... After some listenings, I realised that maybe some of these three new songs could be left put of the new cd. Sometimes it happens.

"Privateering" and "Haul away" sounds very very nice so my guess this two will be at the next record, but I have my doubts about "Corned beef city".

Me too. Corned Beef City sounds exactly as a typical b-side or bonus track... After several hearings I must say it is a little dull indeed, whereas Privateering really grows with every listen on me! One of the greatest songs since 1996 I would dare to say! So much energy! Love it...
