As far as I am aware the only recorded version of that track appeared on
The Unperverted Pantomime along with Malicious Boogie and Animal

I guess they are tracks that didn't make the grade for the first album
(they would've sounded out of place anyway)

I was just re-listening to my own 2006 Killing Joke tribute podcast, and

the second song I play on it is a very cool live version of a song
titled "You're Being Followed."

You can play it from there or download it as an mp3.


So - what is the story behind "You're being Followed"? It sounds pretty
kick ass yet I never see any mention of it, anywhere.

It has a chunky metal guitar riff, seems solidly punk or at least early
post-punk, but seems to have gone down the memory hole....? Just
curious. Live, it sounds great. But a lot of KJ songs sound great live
that end up sounding not-so-great in the studio. ;(
