“Cab It Up” by The Fall

"Cab It Up" comes from I Am Kurious Oranj, the Fall's 11th studio album, which Beggars Banquet put out in October 1988 as the music for I Am Curious, Orange, the band's ballet collaboration with dancer Michael Clark. Mark E. Smith takes the composer credit, sings lead and co-produced with Ian Broudie, while Brix Smith adds guitar and vocals, Craig Scanlon plays electric and acoustic guitar, Steve Hanley bass, Marcia Schofield keyboards and Simon Wolstencroft drums.

The record capped a good year for the group, one that had already brought the more accessible Frenz Experiment and a handful of UK chart singles, but things were fraying inside the band, with Mark and Brix's marriage nearing its end.
