It’s been quite a while since we’ve done a Hidden Prime Cuts show for you. So here’s a brand new one for your listening pleasure! The track? A 1991 B-side from Swedish pop-rock duo Roxette - Come Back (Before You Leave). I bought their Joyride CD single and this track was on it. I always thought it deserved a place on the band’s Joyride album. It’s got a killer middle eight! Anyway, you decide. With a brief history of the band, the track, and my thoughts on it; it’s another TTMF Hidden Prime Cut.Like the podcast?
